<em><u>Question:</u></em>
A man left #5720 to be shared among his son and 3 daughters each daughter shared 3/4 of the Son shared, how much did the son received
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
The son share was $ 1760
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
$ 5720 is to be shared among his son and 3 daughters
Since each of the three daughters got a share that was 3/4 of the son's share,
Let the son's share by 4x and each daughter's share by 3x
Therefore,
4x + 3 daughters ( 3x ) = 5720
4x + 9x = 5720
13x = 5720
Divide both sides by 13
x = 440
Therefore,
Son share = 4x = 4(440) = 1760
Thus the son share was $ 1760
