Answer 1

Yoshi will have to pay $50 more dollars each month.

Answer 2

Answer: Amount more paid by Yodhi is $50 each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial amount of insurance premium per month = $500

Percentage of total cost of his family's health insurance paid by employer = 80%

Remaining % paid by Yodhi = 80%

Now, Amount of insurance premium per month increased to = $750

so, Difference between them becomes

$\ 750-\ 500\\\\=\ 250$

so, amount paid by Yodhi more each month is given by

$\frac{20}{100}\times 250\\\\=0.2\times \ 250\\\\=\ 50$

Hence, amount more paid by Yodhi is $50 each month.
