Somewhere between $80-$90.
[$100 less $7.65 Social Security/Medicare; $10 federal withholding; $??? your state income tax withholding if you have a state income tax, assuming you declare one (1) exemption on your W-4.]
If your only wages and income (including unemployment benefits) do not exceed $8,200 this year, you should not owe any federal tax, in which case you could declare 2 or 3 exemptions on your W-4 so nothing (state or federal) is taken out and that would increase your take-home to $92.35.
