let the second and third part is 5x and 7x
so first part is 1/4 of the second
so first part is 5x/4
now 5x/4+5x+7x=5830
or 5x/4+12x=5830
or 53x/4=5830
or x=440
so first part is 5x/4=550
second part is 5x =2200
third part is 7x =3080
so first part is 1/4 of the second
so first part is 5x/4
now 5x/4+5x+7x=5830
or 5x/4+12x=5830
or 53x/4=5830
or x=440
so first part is 5x/4=550
second part is 5x =2200
third part is 7x =3080
