a = 1/3*12000
\n" ); document.write( "b = 2/3*(12000-a)
\n" ); document.write( "c =12000-(a+b)
\n" ); document.write( "a+b+c = 12000
\n" ); document.write( "Use substitution
\n" ); document.write( "4000+5333.333+2666.667 = 12000
\n" ); document.write( "So A received 4000, B received 5333.333, and C received 2666.667.\r
