Number of hours worked: 8

earning per hour = $9

tax = 16%

First, multiply the number of hours by the earnings per hour:

8 x 9 = $72 (total earnings)

Now, find the tax amount by multiplying the total earnings by the tax percentage in decimal form (divided by 100)

72 x (16/100)= 72 x 0.16 = $11.52

Finally, subtract the tax amount to the total earnings:

Money left: 72-11.52 = $ 60.48
