d.$10,000

Respuesta :

Answer:

$80,000

Explanation:

Given:

Frank's fault = 80%

Fran's fault = 20%

Total loss of Fran = $100,000

Now, the state follows the comparative negligence

thus,

The Fran will recover the amount = Frank's fault in the total loss of Fran

Thus,

The Fran will recover = 80% of the total loss

or

The Fran will recover = 0.80 × $100,000

or

The Fran will recover = $80,000
