HEY DEAR ... ✌

______________________________


Let,
the mother's share = x
according to the question,
elder daughter's contribution= 3/8 x
younger daughter's contribution = 1/2 x
now,
x +3x/8 + x/2 = 62000
(8x +3x+4x)/8 = 62000
15x = 496000
x = 496000/15
x  = mother's share= 33067
3/8 x = elder daughter's share = 33067 × 3/8 = 12400
1/2 x = younger daughter's share = 33067/2 = 16533


HOPE , IT HELPS ... ✌
