Three brothers in a business deal share the profit at the end of a contract. The first received \(\frac{1}{3}\) of the profit and the second \(\frac{2}{3}\) of the remainder. If the third received the remaining N12000.00 how much profit did they share?

total=x
1st=1/3x
remainder=1-1/3=2/3x
2nd =2/3of2/3x=4/9x
total-(1st+2nd)=3rd
2/3+4/9=7/9
1-7/9=3/9x
recall 3rd=12000
3/9x=12000
3x=9*12000
3x=108000
x=54000
so B is correct
omo this thing long ooshaa hoped it helped
