how much will each of his children receive if a man left his twenty five million in his two sons and daughter. the two sons will receive equal shares twice than the daughter?
total = 25, 000, 000
ratio = 2:2:1
25, 000, 000 / (2+2+1)
25000000 / 5 = 5000000
5,000,000 x 2 = 10,000,000 for the first son
5,000,000 x 2 = 10,000,000 for the second son
5,000,000 x 1 = 5,000,000 for the daughter
Final Answer:
10 million for each son and 5 million for his daughter

How do you solve for missing sides in similar figures?
set up a proportion. cross multiply. solve
How can you solve problems involving percents?
That would depend on the specific problem. The "rule of three" (i.e., solving proportions) can help for many standard problems; i.e., you consider a proportion, where the percentage has a denominator of 100. Here are some examples:1) What's 17% of 2000? The proportion to solve is: 17/100 = x/2000 2) 500 is what percentage of 2000? The proportion to solve is: x/100 = 500/2000 3) 500 is 10% of what number? The proportion to solve is: 500/x = 10/100
