Answer:
The answer is given below:
Step-by-step explanation:
The wise man must have divided the total number of cars (15) by number of sons(3) so as to avoid dispute between the sons regarding number of cars and also simplify his work.
Thus, 15/3 = 5 cars
Thus, each son must have 5 cars.
However, this is just what I think. Answers may vary.
