Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

Hence, the expression can be written has:

0.4 of x = 56

0.4x = 56

Divide both sides by 0.4

0.4x / 0.4 = 56 / 0.4

x = 140

Hence, 56 is 0.4 of 140

The total amount of Mrs. Spring's estate is $200,000

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

A fraction is written in the form of a numerator and a denominator where the denominator is greater than the numerator.

Example: 1/2, 1/3 is a fraction.

We have,

Let the total estate = 100x

Share left with Sam = 50x

Remaining share = 50x

Now,

Share left with cousin Fred = 1/2 of 50x = 25x

Remaining  share = 25x

Share left with nephew Bill = 1/2 x (25x) = 12.5x

Remaining share = 12.5x

Share left with the care of the cat Chester = 12.5x

12.5x = $25,000

Now,

12.5x = $25,000

Multiply with 100/12.5 on both sides.

100/12.5 x 12.5x = 100/12.5 x $25,000

100x = $200,000

Thus,

The total amount of Mrs. Spring's estate is $200,000
