A woman walks into a store and steals $100 she comes back and buys $70 worth of goods with the $100, the owner gives her$30 in change how much did the owner lose?

Answer 1

The answer is $100.

Amount she steals= $100
Amount she bought goods= $70
Amount the owner returns as change = $30
Amount owner loses=?

Amount she steals +amount of goods - amount she gives to owner + amount owner returns as change = $100 + $70 - $100 + $30 = $200 - $100 = $100
