Answer:
$333.33
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is a little bit confusing, but I am assuming you mean to say that the 72% of the total pay, which is the amount he took home, is $240. So, then you can set up a proportion to solve the problem.
72[tex]\frac{72}{100} = \frac{240}{x}[/tex]
Then, you multiply the proportion out, getting [tex]72x = 240*100[/tex]
multiply the right side out and then divide by 72 to get $333.33
