Answer:
- 9 camels
- 6 camels
- 2 camels
Step-by-step explanation:
If I add 1 camel to the herd, the first person can get (1/2)×18 = 9 camels.
The second person gets (1/3)×18 = 6 camels.
The third person gets (1/9)×18 = 2 camels.
The total number of camels distributed is 9+6+2 = 17 camels.
The one remaining is returned to me.
- 1st person: 9 camels
- 2nd person: 6 camels
- 3rd person: 2 camels

<em>Comment on the question</em>
This is a trick question, a joke, a riddle. 17 camels cannot be divided in the given proportions without dividing a camel. The total of camels distributed should be 1/2 +1/3 +1/9 = 17/18 of the herd. Each person actually gets 18/17 of their allotment.
