    Premium is likely to be $180.00

    Explanation:

    Two players have 40% chance of slipping

    Equally, two players have 20% chance of slipping

    bruise cost per slip is $150

    Premium=40% chance of slipping*bruise cost*2 players + 20% chance of slipping*bruise cost*2 players

    Premium=40%*$150*2+20%*$150*2

    Premium=0.4*$150*2+0.2*$150*2

    premium=$60*2+$30*2

    premium=$120+$60

    premium=$180.00

    If the insurance company offers bruise insurance to the players, the premium is likely to be in the region of $180.00
