1. Determine the percentage of gross wages paid by the employee towards social security: 4.2% or 0.042.

2. Calculate the social security amount paid by the employee:

32,000 \times 0.042 = 1,344

3. Hence, someone earning $32,000 a year will pay $1,344 towards social security out of their gross wages.
