Solution

Finding the money each son get:

The ratio of their ages are 128=32

So, the total amount will be divided in 5 portions out of which three portion of the amount will be given to Manish and the rest two portions will be given to Shivam.

This way

Manish gets =35×320=192

Shivam gets = 25×320=128

Hence, Manish gets 192 and Shivam gets 128.
