\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " How much less does X receive than if the profit were divided in proportion to the amount invested.
\n" ); document.write( "Find the total amt invested: 5500+3500+1000 = $10000
\n" ); document.write( "x's share; $\"5500%2F10000\"$ * 3000 = $1650 if divide proportionally
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "1650 - 1000 = $650 less for x \n" ); document.write( "
