If William broke his leg in an accidental fall, he had to pay the amount of deductible ($150). While the insurance company has a coinsurance which is equal to 20% of cost less the deductible.So, since the entire bill for medical services = $750 then the cost less deductible = $750-$150=$600
Payment of coinsurance is given
$$\frac{ 20 }{ 100 } X 600 $$
$$= \frac{ 1}{ 5 } X 600 $$
Which brings the final cost to $120
