Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Freud - 1/5

Wally - 1/3

Jed - 3/10

1/5 + 1/3 + 3/10

Notice that they all have 3 different denominators, the thing to do is to find their least common denominator for the three fractions.

Their least common denominator is 30, therefore..

1 x 6 1 x 10 3 x 3

——— + ———— + ———

5 x 6 3 x 10 10 x 3

Leading to...

6 10 9

— + — + —

30 30 30

25

= —

30

Or in simpler terms,

= 5/6

The brothers own 5/6 of the land.
