How is the inheritance distributed if the heirs are: a father, a grandfather (father's father), a full brother, two paternal uncles (father's brothers from the father), a husband, a mother, a maternal grandmother (mother's mother), a paternal grandmother (father's mother), and four full sisters?

The husband, father, and mother are the sole heirs. The husband receives half due to the absence of a lineal descendant heir. The mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of more than one sibling. The father receives the remainder of the estate. The estate should be divided into six shares: three for the husband, one for the mother, and the rest for the father. Estates should be divided under the supervision of courts.
