Let the mother's share be 'a'
Elder son's share = (3/8)a
Younger son's share = (1/2) a
Total contribution by them = a + (3/8) a + (1/2) a
= (8/8) a + (3/8) a + (4/8) a
= (15/8) a
Also, total contribution = Rs 60000
Thus,
(15/8) a = 60000
a = (60000 x 8) /15
= 4000 x 8
= 32000
Thus
Mother's share = Rs 32000
Elder son's share = 3/8 x 32000 = 3 x 4000 = Rs 12000
Younger son's share = 1/2 x 32000 = Rs 16000
