I would have to say D, $191,000.00

Answer:

Option A is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will begin by dividing the actual amount of coverage on the house by the amount that should have been carried i.e $480000.

80% of $600,000 is = [tex]0.80\times600000[/tex] =$480000

So, [tex]\frac{420000}{480000}= 0.875[/tex]

Now, we will multiply this amount by the amount of the loss;

[tex]0.875\times170000=148750[/tex]

Therefore, the liability of the insurance company is $148,750.
