Answer:
Each child will receive 0.125 (or 12.5%) of the estate.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the surviving spouse gets one half of the estate, the other half have to be divided among the four surviving children.
So its 0,5 divided among the 4 surviving children. That is 0.125 or 12.5% of the estate.
Each child will receive 0.125 of the estate.
solve for x.
4x−5=7+4y
Add 5 to both sides.
4x−5+5=4y+7+5
4x=4y+12
Divide both sides by 4.
4x/4=4y+12/4
x=y+3
