Step-by-step explanation:
He "was a handsome, fair-haired, curly headed fellow, full of fun, and very fond of singing." He used to drink but had changed his ways and became a good man. He was accused of murdering a fellow merchant and robbing him. Even though he maintained his innocence, he was convicted of the crime and sent to prison.

Answer:
Man sold1/2 of land
The remaining portion=1-1/2=1/2 :1/2 of 1/2=1/4to his son and 1/3 of balance
= 1/3 of (1/2-1/4)=1/3 of 1/4=1/12 to his daughter
The portion left with him=
1-(1/2+1/4+1/12)=1-10/12=2/12=1/6
