To determine how much the daughter will get, we need to calculate the ratio of the man's age to his daughter's age.

The man's age is 50, and his daughter's age is 25. The ratio of their ages is:

Ratio = Man's age / Daughter's age = 50 / 25 = 2

For every 2 dollars the dad gets the daughter will receive 1 dollar

Now we can use this ratio to divide the total sum of money, N780.

Dad's share = (2/3) * 780

Daughter's share = (1/3) * 780

Calculating the amounts:

Dad's share = (2/3) * 780 = 520

Daughter's share = (1/3) * 780 = 260

Therefore, the daughter would receive N260
