Answer:

Pransit will recover:

B. $45,000

Explanation:

a) The rules of negligence and defense of pure comparative negligence will ensure that Pransit recovers some damages arising from the negligent deriving.  However, the extent of the amount he will recover depends on the percentage of the defendant's fault.  The implication is that Sanjay will be responsible for 75% of the damage while Pransit bears the remaining 25% (100% - 75%).

b) Amount of damages suffered by Pransit = $60,000

Percentage of Sanjay's negligence = 75%

Therefore, the damage liable to be paid by Sanjay to Pransit = $45,000 ($60,000 * 75%).
