Answer:

1/3 of his land

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 1/2 is gone. he divides the other half into 1/3,1/4,1/4.
  • son gets 1/2 -1/3 which is 1/6.
  • daughter gets 1/2-1/4 which is 1/4.
  • the orphanage also gets 1/4.
  • add them altogether
  • 1/6+1/4+1/4=2/3
  • so 2/3 of his half land is gone to the people he shared with.
  • 2/3 of the 1/2 land = 2/3 of 1/2=1/3
