Four individuals form a business and create a contract to divide the profits equally among the four. gary invests $11,000, neil invests $4,000, jill invests $5,000, and steve invests $8,000. the profits at the end of the year are $5,600. how much less does gary receive than if the profits were divided in relation to the amount invested by each owner?

$800

Explanation:

First, we need to determine what is the ratio of Gary's initial investment to the total invested amount:

The contract states that Gary should get one fourth of the $5,600 profits. If profits were divided in relation to the amount invested, Gary would receive 0.3928 multiplied by total profits. Therefore, the difference (D) is:

Gary receives $800 fewer.
