Thing is me and my two brothers are getting some inheritance after our father and here I have a sheet of how much everyone would get. I know the value of the land, so I'd only need to calculate how much would the three of us get? note that the tree of us are getting part from our father which is parted on 3 parts, because we are three children, so here I have a sheet: Grandma (fathers mother) - entitled to 8/14 of the land brother 1 (fathers brother, our uncle) - entitled to 2/14 of the land brother 2 - entitled to 1/14 of the land brother 3 - entitled to 1/14 of the land sister 1 - entitled to 1/14 of the land myself - entitled to 1/42 of the land my brother 1 - entitled to 1/42 of the land my brother 2 - entitled to 1/42 of the land value of the land is: 59.000 €uros so can anyone please calculate for me how much of those 59k are we three children entitled to each one of us? thank you very much.

Here you go....I think anyways I am assuming the Euros work like Dollars. 59,000 / 14 ------ 4,214.28 Meaning that each person that gets 1/14 gets 4,214.28 59,000 / 42 ------ 1,404.76 Meaning that each person that get 1/42 gets 1,404.76 I hope that this is what you needed for an answer..... Bryan
