If there are two properties 1 parent and 3 sons

no good at maths I'm afraid

The split on property 1 is

Parent 50%

3 sons equal share of remaining 50%

Property 2

Parent 25% & each son 25%

as a % what is each sons total % of the combined properties

TIA

depends on the value of the properties.

I reckon the parent gets 37.5% and the sons each get 20.83%.

Of course I could be talking utter nonsense.

Parent: 37.5%
Each child: 20.83%

Ah, Bunk got there first.

Only if the properties are the same value.

e.g.
Property 1 is worth £200
Parent gets £100
Each son gets £33.33

Property 2 is worth £1000
Parent gets £250
Each son gets £250

Total value = £1200
Parent gets £350 (29%)
Each son gets £288.33 (24%)

Ha, see! I knew I was probably talking rubbish

No change there then

Depends on the values of the properties.

P1 is expensive, parental %age of total goes up
P2 is expensive, parental %age of total goes down

As P1 approaches 0, and P2 approaches infinity, parental %age approaches 25%
As P1 approaches infinity, and P2 approaches, parental %age approaches 50%

and the childrens = (100 - parental %age)/3

Can I borrow 50k? Don't worry, it's not much money, it's less than £4. Thanks
