2.4

Explanation:

Jones Company's total current assets = $600 (cash) + $500 (accounts receivable) + $100 (Office supplies) = $1,200

total current liabilities = $300 (accounts payable) + $200 (salaries payable) = $500

current ratio = $1,200 / $500 = 2.4

the current ratio measures a company's short term liquidity, or its ability to generate enough cash to pay its short term debts.
