ssume Nadine earns 49,900 this year.

Let's determine how much of Nadine's income will be taxed at each rate. This is kind of like separating all of her money into three buckets, once for each tax bracket that applies to her.

Look at the lowest bracket first. The lowest part of Nadine's income will not be taxed at all because the lowest rate is 0%. How much of Nadine's income will be "taxed" at 0%? ___________________

Since Nadine's income extends into the third bracket, her income includes the entire span of the second bracket. Subtract the top amount minus the bottom amount in the second bracket to see how much of her income is being taxed at 14%:

Nadine's income reaches partway into the third bracket. Subtract her income minus the bottom end of the third bracket to see how much of her income is being taxed at 30%: ___________________________

Gabriel has a taxable income of 36,700 (for reference, this is above the French national average). Let's calculate his tax bill.

The first 9,964 of his earnings are untaxed.

27,519 - 9,964 = 17,555 is taxed at the 14% rate.

36,700 - 27,519 = 9,181 is taxed at the 30% rate.

For each of these "chunks" of his income, let's calculate the tax owed by multiplying the tax rate by the number of euros taxed at that rate.

The 0% chunk: .00 * 9,964 = 0

The 14% chunk: .14 * 17,555 = ? (you figure this out)

The 30% chunk: .30 * 9,181 = ? (you figure this out, too)

Now add the tax on all three "chunks" together to find his total tax: 0 + ? + ?

Gabriel's total tax is:____________________
