Problem:
A condominium building has three units. The ownership for 'unit one' is 32 precent. The ownership for 'unit two' is 34 precent. The ownership for 'unit three' is 34 precent.
If the condominium does an assessment for each unit in proportion to ownership to paint the building, and units two and three each pay $5000, how much should unit one contribute?
==================================================
Is this the correct answer?
[1] 34 + 34 + 32 = 100 percent ownership
[2] unit one owes 2 percent less than the other units
[3] 2 percent of $5000 is $100 (2% X $5000 = .02X$000 = $100)
[4] unit one owes $4900 to paint the house ($5000 -$100 =$4900)
===========
A friend said the answer was $4706? I have no clue how they got that answer.
