Answer:

$18,750

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1.

150,000 x 1/2 = 75,000

(this is the amount going to his daughter)

Step 2.

150,000 x 3/8 = 56,250

(this is the amount going to his favorite nephew)

Step 3.

75,000 + 56,250 = 131,250

Step 4.

150,000 - 131,250 = 18,750

(this is the amount left over for his only grandson)
