The standard deduction for brad who is 70, filing MFS and blind is $13,300.

Explanation:

The standard deduction is the amount to be deducted from the tax amount you have to pay. The deduction amount is calculated by summing up the standard deduction and any other deductions based on the age or blindness.

If a person with age completed 65 and above additional deduction is eligible. Also, if you're blind along with your age then it can be further deduced. Moreover, marital status and type of filing can also decide the deduction amount.

Brad is 70 with blindness and also he is filling separately (MFS means Married Filing Separately). The amount deducted for Age and Blindness is $1,300 and for MFS is $12,000. So the total deduction amount for Brad is $13,300.
