Answer: 50%

Explanation:

A defendant that is only slightly at fault will be responsible to the consumer for the percentage of responsibility of that defender. Also a defender might be singly or jointly held accountable for all damages incur if;

• The percentage of responsibility for the defendant is more than 50%.

• The defendant who has the intention to hurt team up with another to commit what is called high felony, if such person is a licensed broker, the broker will be responsible for their action.
