I do not think that all states are standardized yet but in Nevada it is 25% of the non custodial parents income for the first child and then an added amount of something like 3% for every additional child.
The custodial parents income or marital status does not factor in at all.

If you are married can you stop child support?
Being married does not automatically stop child support. Child support is a legal obligation that exists to ensure the well-being of the child. It is determined based on factors such as custody arrangements, the income of both parents, and the needs of the child. Marriage alone does not release a parent from their financial responsibility towards their child.
