Answer: 5% approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
Jen earns $35,650 a year working for an electronics supplier and pays $1,749.80 in state income tax each year. To calculate the income tax rate, we divide the amount paid as tax by her annual income and then multiply by 100. This will be:
= 1749.80/35650 × 100
= 4.91%
