What should each son receive if a man leaves 300000 to his 3 sons to be distributed in proportion to their ages which are 18 20 and 22?

To solve this, you need to take the sum of the sons' ages, divide the amount left (300000 units) by that sum, and get each son's amount by multiplying his age by the result of that division.
So first we take the sum of their ages:
18 + 20 + 22 = 60
Now divide the total amount by that sum
300000 / 60
= 5000
So each son gets 5000 times his age:
The 18 year old son gets 18 * 5000 = 90000.
The 20 year old son gets 20 * 5000 = 100000.
The 22 year old son gets 22 * 5000 = 110000.
