Answer:

A:B:C = 5:8:6

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't have to change A, you only have to change B and C in the second ratio given. First, B is 8 and secondly, B is 4. You can multiply 4 in the second ratio and make it 8, but, remember, <em>always do the same change to the other side too</em>. So, if you change the 4 to 8 by multiplying by 2, multiply 3, which is C, by 2 too. Then, you get B:C as 8:6. Lastly, you get the final answer as 5:8:6.

yan [13]

Answer: He will receive only $55080 against the fire insurance that caused damage the property.

Explanation:

Since we have given that a house worth $250,000 has a coinsurance clause of 90 percent .

But the owner insure the property for $191,250.

That means the owner does not insure the property for his full value ,

Amount incurred on fire that caused damage =$80,000

Amount he will receive against his insurance is given by

$80000\times \frac{90}{100}\times \frac{191250}{250000}\\\\=\$55080$

Hence, He will receive only $55080 against the fire insurance that caused damage the property.
