They keep the ratio of profit at 4:3
\n" ); document.write( "J has 1/5 share, so D and K have
\n" ); document.write( "4/5 share together.
\n" ); document.write( "D has \"+%284%2F7%29%2A%284%2F5%29+=+16%2F35+\" share
\n" ); document.write( "K has \"+%283%2F7%29%2A%284%2F5%29+=+12%2F35+\" share
\n" ); document.write( "J has \"+1%2F5+\" or \"+7%2F35+\" share
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Note that \"+16%2F35+%2B+12%2F35+%2B+7%2F35+=+1+\"
\n" ); document.write( "as it should
\n" ); document.write( "The ratios now are:
\n" ); document.write( "D:K:J = 16:12:7
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
