Let's take each statement one by one.

1) The insurance company is required to pay only 20 percent of the original bill for the test.

Since the company pays 20% of the bill, the discount percent = 80%. Sufficient.

2) The insurance company is required to pay $46 for the test.

Percent discount = [(230 - 46) / 230]*100% = 80%. Sufficient.

The correct answer: D

Hope this helps!

The percent discount (specified by the contract) will dictate the amount the insurance company has to pay for each transaction. For instance, if the discount was 10%, the insurance company will be liable to pay $207 (230-23) out of $230. Essentially, if you can find out how much the insurance company has to pay out of the sum of $230, you can calculate the discount.

Statement (1) Company pays \(20%\). This implies the company enjoys \(80%\) discount. Sufficient

Statement (2) Company pays $46. Discount \(=\frac{230-46}{230}*100\). Sufficient

Both the statements are sufficient \(\Rightarrow\) __D__
