£26,435 + 131,115 = £157,550
£26,435/157,550 X 100 = 16.78%
£131,115/157550 = 83.22%

26,435 plus 131,115 equals 157,550. The person who invested the 26,435 would have invested 16.78% of 157,550 and the person who invested 131,115 would have invested 83.22% of 157,550. So, if it makes a profit, multiply the profit by 16.78% and 83.22% respectively to see how much each one would receive back.

the 100 is the %. anyway the % your looking for is the 16.7 figure.
