The parents of three teenagers are notified that the teens have inherited from their grandmother 36 shares of stock in a certain company. There are no instructions as to how the shares should be split up, and the parents are asked to divide the shares among the teenagers as they see fit. The parents decide to split the shares based on how many hours each teenager spent helping their grandmother each month.
