So each of Ralph's children gets 1/6 of his property\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "One of his daughter's splits her 1/6th into 4th's\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now the question is how many 1/4ths are ther in 1/6th??
\n" ); document.write( "In other 4 times some number (x) equals 1/6, so:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4x=1/6 myltiply each side by 6
\n" ); document.write( "24x=1 divide each side by 24
\n" ); document.write( "x=1/24=0.041667=4.1667%--------------------the percentage of property that one of the four grandchildren gets\r
