1. A, B, and C are partners. Each originally contributed $5,000 to the partnership. if, after dissolution and liquidation, the firm's assets are $100,000 and its debts to creditors are $40,000, how much will be C's share of the assets if according to the partnership contract they are to be divided equally among the partners?
