Explanation:

Let the total money be x
Half of the total money goes to wife = x/2
2/3 of the remainig x/2 = x/3 is divided equally among three sons.
The share of each son  = 1/3 x x/3 = x/9
and, x/2 - x/3 = x/6 is divided equal1y among four daughters.
The share of each daughter  = 1/4 x x/6 = x/24
now, x/24 = 20000
x = 480000
The share of each son = x/9 = 480000/9  = Rs.53333.33

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
