Answer:

Long term capital gain of $25,000

Explanation:

Since the partnership interest was a gift from George's father, the holding period will include the time his father owned the partnership interest (from 2013 - 2019), so any gain will be a long term gain.

The basis for George's taxes will be the basis at the time he received the gift ($60,000), so his gain = $85,000 - $60,000 = $25,000
