Step-by-step explanation:

Gavyn & Raj share a lottery win of £950 in the ratio 1 : 4

share of Gavyn = 1×950/(1+4) = 190

Gavyn then shares his part between himself, his wife & their son in the ratio 5 : 3 : 2

share for his wife = 3×190/(5+3+2) = 57

share for their son = 2×190/(5+3+2) = 38

the amount his wife get more over their son = 57-38 = 19
