To determine the total compensation that the insured will receive after submitting three claims with a deductible of $100, we first need to compute the payout for each claim after the deductible amount is subtracted.

For the first claim of $300:

  • The deductible of $100 is subtracted from $300, resulting in a payout of $200.

For the second claim of $200:

  • Again, after subtracting the deductible of $100, the payout becomes $100.

For the third claim of $50:

  • Since the claim amount ($50) is less than the deductible ($100), no payout will be made for this claim.

Now, summing up the payouts from the first two claims:

  • From the first claim: $200

  • From the second claim: $100

  • The third claim results in no payout.

Adding these amounts together gives:

$200 + $100 = $300.

Thus, the total compensation that the insured will receive after submitting the claims, accounting for the deductible, is $300.
