Answer:

$70,000

Explanation:

Under a Comparative negligence theory,

When an accident occurs, the blame or fault is determined by the contributions of each party towards the accident.

In a pure comparative negligence theory, the victim or plaintiff who files a case, sue the other party and received some part of the damages and hence each party receives the amount related to their damages minus the part of their fault.

In our case, Annette fault contributes 30% to the collision and determined that her total loss was $100,000.

So, Annette will recover:

= Total loss - 30% of fault

= $100,000 - 0.3 × $100,000

= $100,000 - $30,000

= $70,000
