Answer 1

if you add all of the % it would be 6%. 6% as a decimal would be .06, you would then multiply .06 but 785 because it is being taken off and it would be 47.1 then you add all of the other numbers to get her. 47.1+42.25+90.33=179.68. and lastly you take 785-179.68 with equals 605.32. the answer is B
