Roy's insurance company pays for 85% of his foot surgery, after he pays a $300 deductible. how much will roy pay for his foot surgery if it costs $2200?

a. $630
b. $585
c. $330
d. $285

The correct option is B. $585

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of the surgery = $2200

Amount paid by Roy that is deductible = $300

Amount left to be paid = 2200 - 300 = $1900

Now, 85% of the amount is to be paid by insurance company

⇒ Amount paid by insurance company = 85% of 1900

                                                                  = 0.85 × 1900

                                                                  = $1615

Amount left to be paid by Roy = 1900 - 1615

                                                   = $285

Total amount to paid by Roy = Deductible + Amount left to be paid after insurance company has paid

                                                = 300 + 285 = $585

Hence, Amount paid by Roy for his foot surgery = $585

Therefore, The correct option is B. $585
