calculations help please

Hi all Coucou24.gif just wondered if those with great maths skills can help me please... I dont know if its possible but can you work out how many hours i would need to work if... I work at £5.70 per hour, have a tax code of 522L c u m and need to take home roughly £330.00 per month? Or is there a link somewhere that can calculate it for me? Is it 20 hours or less? i cant work out these things :o Thanks

    Hi Pap

    Its about 15 hours a week as if i've worked it out right you won't be paying tax

    If you ever need it I find this calculator good for working out take home pay

    Tax and National Insurance tend to be approximately 30% of your wages - I use this in all my calculations (it is usually more or less right, I think it works out at 28-29% for me)
