There should be more information, otherwise ....
amount for each son ----
amount for each brother ---- y
2x + 6y = 3,456,000
x + 3y = 1728000
x = 1728000 - 3y
let y = 0,1, 2, 3, .... , 575000, 576000 and each time find x
so you have many answers.
I started y = 0, meaning each of the brothers get nothing
to 576, where the sons get nothing
