Tom broke his leg and needed to go to the doctor. The visit cost $300 and the cast cost $200. If insurance covered 60% how much was Tom's out-of-pocket cost?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
The cost was 300 + 200 = $500. So insurance paid for 500 * .6 = $300. That means he had to pay 500 - 300 = $200 out of pocket.
Thus, the answer is 200.
