A partnership with 10 partners distributes its profits of $450,000 equally to the partners except partner #10 who receives
5% of the total profit. How much do partners #1-9 get equally?
con

Partners #1-9 get $47,500 each.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to calculate the amount received by partner #10, by multiplying the total profit by the percentage in decimal form (5%)

Mathematically speaking:

450,000x (5/100) = $22,500

So, the profit left is:

450,000-22,500 = $427,500

Finally we divide the result by the number of partners left (9)

427,500 /9 = $47,500

Partners #1-9 get $47,500 each.
