Use this code bellow solely as a guide.
puts "How many hours did you work?"
hours = gets.chomp().to_i
puts "What is your tax rate?"
taxrate = gets.chomp().to_i
tax = (100 - taxrate)
netpay = ((hours * 12.00) * tax)
printf "Your netpay is, US$ %.2f", netpay
Aside the code errors, I think your calcs are wrong.
Wouldn't it be something like...
netpay = ((hours * 12.00) * tax) / 100 # with this 100 dividing it.

The Top 3 results from google for Ruby user input integers

Sorry... but I really don't believe it!
*top result stackoverflow
Answer
s =
for i in 1..3
puts "What is point " + i.to_s + " ?" # asks for input
s.push gets.split(" ").map {|x| x.to_i }
end
if s[1][0] - s[0][0] == 0 # notice the '=='.
puts 'It worked!'
end
*In second place well sadly the result was stackoverflow again.
For multiple integer input
q = 1
$stdin.readline.split.each {|n| q *= n.to_i }
p q
*result number 3 is drum roll me with this thread User Input Integers - Ruby - Ruby-Forum
Sadly no decent Ruby Documentation comes up in the google search, even
sader this thread is already in the top 3.
