Choose the correct choice from the following:
A) $1,500
B) $2,000
C) $2,500
D) $3,000

$1,500nswer   Chris already has both 60% and 33% of the debt:   =60%+ 33% = 93%   The remaining amount that he will need to pay is equal to:   60 + 33= 
<gadget id="calculator">60 + 33</gadget>
<output>93</output>
93%   The remaining amount that he will need to pay is equal to:=100%-93%=7%   We know that this additional amount is $105; this allows us to find the initial total amount of his debt:   7%100 -93= 
<gadget id="calculator">100 -93</gadget>
<output>7</output>
7%   We know that this additional amount is $105; this allows us to find the initial total amount of his debt:   7%=$105   $105/7=$105/0.07= $1,500   answer is $1,500.
