Final Answer : B, Explanation :  To find the total current (I T ) in a parallel RC circuit, use the formula I T  = √((I R )² + (I C )²), where I R  = E T /R and I C  = E T /X C . Calculate I R  = 120V / 47kΩ = 2.55 mA and I C  = 120V / 27kΩ = 4.44 mA. Then, I T  = √((2.55)² + (4.44)²) mA = 5.13 mA.
