Answer:

Three partners share for business. Each partner’s receive  Max-$ 93,750  and Sherry-$ 100,000  and Duane-$ 56,250

Solution:

Given that three partners share the business

Max owns 3/8, Sherry owns 2/5, and Duane owns the rest

Profit of the year is 250,000

We need to find how much is the share of each partner

Share owned by Max [tex]=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Share owned by Sharry = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Share owned by Duane [tex]=1-\left(\frac{3}{8}+\frac{2}{5}\right)=\frac{9}{40}[/tex]

Total profit earned = $250,000

Thus, Max receives = [tex]\frac{3}{8} \times250,000[/tex] = $93,750

Sharry receives = [tex]\frac{2}{5} \times 250,000[/tex] = $100,000

Duane receives = [tex]\frac{9}{40} \times250,000[/tex] = $56,250

Hence the share of Max , Sharry and Duane is calculated.
