Answer:

First Sibling gets $4000

Second Sibling gets $8000

Third Sibling gets $12,000

Fourth Sibling gets $16,000

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio of 2:4:6:8 means that

First sibling gets 2 parts of total

Second sibling gets 4 parts of total

Third sibling gets 6 parts of total

Fourth sibling gets 8 parts of total

Now, how many parts are there??

2 + 4 + 6 + 8 = 20 parts

Now, we divide the total inheritance ($40,000) in 20 parts, so each part is worth:

40,000/20 = $2000

Hence,

First Sibling gets = 2000 * 2 = $4000

Second Sibling gets = 2000 * 4 = $8000

Third Sibling gets = 2000 * 6 = $12,000

Fourth Sibling gets = 2000 * 8 = $16,000
