    She will receive $24,000 after paying taxes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This question can be solved using a rule of three.

    20% of her money has to go to the state for taxes. So she will receive 100-20 = 80%. $30000 is 100% = 1. How much is 80% = 0.8?

    $30000 - 1

    $x - 0.8

    x = 30000*0.8

    x = 24000

    She will receive $24,000 after paying taxes
