Please explain this question in detail.

Dear Student

In parallel RLC circuit the applied voltage remains the same across all components and the supply current gets divided.

The total current drawn from the supply is not equal to mathematical sum of the current flowing in the individual component, but it is equal to its vector sum of all the currents, as the current flowing in resistor, inductor and capacitor are not in the same phase with each other; so they cannot be added arithmetically.
LetIR is the current flowing in the resistor, R in amps.  IC is the current flowing in the capacitor, C in amps.  IL is the current flowing in the inductor, L in amps.  Is is the supply current in amps.IS =IR2+IL-Ic2IS =0.32+0.8-0.42IS =0.09+0.16 =0.25 =0.5A
