William will pay a total of $750 out of pocket for both cars to be fixed.

The other car is covered by the property damage portion of his insurance, so it is covered 100% by the insurance company and there is no deductible or amount that William needs to pay. William's car will be covered by the collision portion of his insurance. He is responsible for paying the $750 deductible and the insurance company will pay the remaining $50.
