Answer:

B. $10,000

Explanation:

Amount insured = 100000 .

This is the maximum amount payable.

So replacement cost which is higher can not be paid .

payable damage

= 75000 as damage due to fire +

15000 as damage to a separate garage

Total payable

= 90000

The rest of amount that is

100000 - 90000

= 10000 can be paid as damage for the  trees.
