Explanation:

Take-home refers to the net pay of an individual. Salaried employees are subject to statutory deduction, such as taxes and pensions. An employee may also have voluntary deductions like loans or a mortgage. The net pay that an employee receives after all deductions is the take-home pay.

Take-home is subject to state laws and regulations. Employers are not allowed to deduct employees' pay beyond a certain percentage. The law requires an employee to have a take-home of around 36 percent if his or her net income.

a progressive tax is a tax that imposes a lower tax rate on low-income earners compared to those with a higher income, making it based on the taxpayer's ability to pay. that means it takes a bigger percentage from high income earners than it does from low income people.

a recipe serves 8 people, and calls for 5 lbs of apples and 2 cups of flour. you want to prepare it for 24 people. divide 24 by 8 to get 3, and then multiply your ingredients by 3.

so for 24 people, you'll need 15 lbs of apples, and 6 cups of flour.
