If the deceased has no heirs other than the wife and children, then the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of children. The remaining inheritance is divided among the children, with the male receiving the share of two females. The origin of the estate is eight, and it can be correctly calculated from one hundred and thirty-six shares. The wife receives 17 shares, the son 14 shares, and the daughter 7 shares.
