Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 of 1,000,000 is 500,000

the son will get 500,000$

now 500,000 divided by 3(since it's 3 grandkids) is

166666.66, because it's money, and you have to round to the nearest cent.

one will get 166666.67, but it doesn't matter who.

so

grand #1 = 166666.66$

grand #2 = 166666.66$

grand #3 = 166666.67$
