Professor Hyden, a retired mathematics teacher, had tried to impress upon his granddaughters the importance of mathematics, so in his will he specified that they should share a $900,000 inheritance as follows: Anna and Lauren, the twins, would each receive 30% of the $900,000 after the other's share was deducted. The third granddaughter, Beth, would receive the remainder after the twins got their share. Find each girl's share. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)

Answer:40% or $360,000

Explanation: I'm pretty sure that the twins would get 60% which adds up to $540,000. which leaves the case that the third granddaughter would receive the rest which would be $360,000. AKA 40%
