Detailed explanation-1: -There are three relatively common partnership types: general partnership (GP), limited partnership (LP) and limited liability partnership (LLP). A fourth, the limited liability limited partnership (LLLP), is not recognized in all states.

All partner, limited and general, share the profits of the business. Each general partner has unlimited liability for the obligations of the business.
