If the deceased had performed his second marriage after demise of his first wife then the son of first wife, second wife and all 3 children born out of this second marriage shall have equal right in the enitre property.
Tis means 5 equal shares in favour of rist son, second wife and her 3 children.
Nothing for third wife as this marriage is void in the eyes of law.
This opinion is based on assuming that the family is Hindu.
