In addition to the 65% of Gerald’s $345 monthly health insurance premium, his employer has offered to pay 50% of a $38 monthly dental premium and 75% of a $23 monthly vision premium. If Gerald adds both the dental and vision options to his insurance plan, how much will he pay each month towards health insurance?Soopergood InsuranceOptionMonthly PremiumEmployer ContributionHealth Insurance$345 65%Dental$38 50%Vision$23 75%

Answer
A
$141.75
B
$145.50
C
$149.50
D
$260.50

Explanation

Gerald pays the portion of each premium his employer does not cover. For health insurance, he pays 35% of $345, or $120.75; for dental, he pays 50% of $38, or $19; and for vision, he pays 25% of $23, or $5.75. Adding these amounts gives $120.75 + $19 + $5.75 = $145.50, so the correct choice is $145.50.
