NY employer, live in DC, W-2s for work in NJ, NC-how to allocate

My daughter works for a NY based consulting firm but lives in Washington DC. She worked on assignments in NJ and NC for most of the year, with only a few days at work in NY. Her W-2s for NY and DC show the same income for the year. She also has W-2s for NJ and NC and had taxes withheld for those states.  Not sure how to allocate her income. Local taxes were withheld on her DC W-2, but only minimal taxes were withheld on the NY W-2.  Need help in determining how to calculate her NY, DC, NJ and NC tax liability. If 40% of her income came from an assignment in NJ and 10% came from NC, what is the liability to DC and NY?
