    Step-by-step explanation:

    Working backward, $10,000 is 1% of $1,000,000, so that is the amount of the "remaining."

    Apparently that is what is left of 1/2 the "remainder" after $50 million goes to the hospital. So 1/2 the "remainder" is $51M, which is also the amount the teacher gets. Those came out of a total of 2*$51M = $102M, which is the amount after the dog's $5M share.

    The fortune was $107 million. The shares were ...

    dog: $5 M teacher: $51 M (the most money) hospital: $50 M wife: $500,000 daughter: $400,000 lawyer: $90,000 son: $10,000
