Answer:

option c) $9,090.90

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out your percentage of distribution of profits in fraction form

Divide your investment by total investment

[tex]\frac{5,000}{5,000+3,000+3,000}=\frac{5,000}{11,000}=\frac{5}{11}[/tex]

step 2

To find out how much you get, multiply your percentage of distribution by the profits

so

[tex]\frac{5}{11} (20,000)=\$9,090.90[/tex]
