Live in Nevada, work in California some of the time

I live in Nevada and work 5 days a week. 2 of those days, I make a drive to California to do my work. The other 3 days I work in the Nevada office. For simplicity, let's say I make 100k a year and California has a flat tax rate of 10% and Nevada has a tax rate of 0%.

 

What will my state taxes be?

 

Will it be:

 

1. 2/5 * 100k * 10%

2. 100k * 10%

3. 0

 

Or some other amount? Also, how do I fill out the forms properly?

Q.  What will my state taxes be?

A. 2/5 * (taxable income, after exemptions, not gross income) * 10%

 

Q. How do I fill out the forms properly?

A. You pay TurboTax to do it for you.  You file a CA non resident form, which TT will do when you follow the interview.
