lianna [129]
For this case, what you should know is that Sue Jones insurance covers half of the expenses. Equivalently, her insurance covers:
 10/20 = 1/2 = 0.5
 Therefore, we have then that
 a. for Albert 
 0.5 * (12000) = $ 6000
 b. for Sam 
 0.5 * (8000) = $ 4000
 c. total
 The sum of the results of parts a and b
 $ 6000 + $ 4000 = $ 10,000
 answer
 $ 6000
 $ 4000
