On January 1, 2017, A, B and C, solidary debtors, borrowed money from D in the amount of P1 million
due on or before June 30, 2017. The proportionate shares in the debt of the solidary debtors are as
follows: A 200,000; B 300,000; and, C 500,000. On January 15, 2017, D remitted the share of C. On
February 14, 2017, A paid the entire debt of P1 million to D. On March 15, 2017, B became insolvent.

proportionate share in the obligation? EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER.

share of B, the insolvent debtor? If yes, how much? EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER AND SHOW YOUR
COMPUTATION.
