Respuesta :

We were told that Wesley willed his estate to Margaret, Betty Jo, and Johnny.

Given that he gave Margaret $20,000. Betty Jo got 22 times as much as Margaret, it means that the amount the at Betty Jo got is 22 * 20000 = 440000

Given that Johnny got 32 times as much as Margaret, it means that the amount that Johnny got is

20000 * 32 = 640000

Therefore, the total value of the estate is

20000 + 440000 + 640000 = 1100000

The total value of the estate is $1,100000
