Think of it this way. Ignore for now that $100 was stolen.
The purchase of the $70 item for $100 cash with $30 change is a perfectly fair purchase. The store received $100 cash, and the store gave $70 worth of merchandise plus $30 cash.There was no loss to the store there.
The fact that $100 in cash was stolen earlier from cash register means the loss is $100. The legitimate transaction does not affect the loss.
If you have a hard time understanding the loss is $100, then think of it this way.
Reverse the order of the two happenings.
A person walked into a store and bought a $70 item with a $100 bill. He received $30 change. So far, there is no loss to the store. Everything is legit.
That customer later came back to the store and stole $100 from the cash register.
Here we see clearly that the loss is exactly $100. It is simply the $100 stolen from the cash register.

Answer: 0.1 OR 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Think about it: There's 1/2 bag of oranges, and you wanna know what number of oranges used in the juice. Take 1/2, and divided it by 5. You get 0.1, then you should turn it into a fraction, giving you 1/10.
