What is the total of all three raises?
OA. $14,341
OB. $4,814
OC. $10,600
OD. $4.739

Answer 1

$4,814

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the percentage is easy. We take the number and bring it to the decimal point. 4%: 0.04, 4.5%: 0.045, 3%: 0.03

Knowing this we just multiply the raise percentage times the salaries. This would give us $1,640, $1,989 and $1,185. Adding this we get the answer of $4,184. Best of luck
