Answer 1

answer C $3,600.00

Explanation:

The problem states that Jane’s yearly contribution of $1,200.00 is 25% of the total cost of the policy. To find out how much her employer contributes, we first need to calculate the total cost of the policy.

Since 25% (or 0.25) of the total cost is $1,200.00, we can find the total cost by dividing $1,200.00 by 0.25, which gives us $4,800.00.

Now, to find out how much her employer contributes, we subtract Jane’s contribution from the total cost: $4,800.00 - $1,200.00 = $3,600.00.

So, her employer contributes $3,600.00 to her yearly health care costs. Therefore, the answer is C. $3,600.60.
