The answer

If the deceased passed away and left behind three daughters and five sons, and no other heirs, the inheritance is to be divided among them, with the male receiving the share of two females. Thus, the issue comprises 13 shares. The share of each daughter is calculated as: the inheritance ÷ 13, and the share of each son is: (the inheritance ÷ 13) × 2. This division applies to the building (if sold or rented with the consent of the heirs) and the land (if divided, sold, or rented). If a donum is estimated at 1000 square meters, then for example: a daughter's share = 384.6 meters, and a son's share = 769.2 meters.
