    3 units + 1 unit = 4 units (the sum of 2nd and 3rd)

    4 units + 4 units = 8 units (sum of all properties)

    *The other 4 units comes from the first property as the first property's value is the same as the sum of the 2nd and 3rd.*

    8 units = $560 000

    1 unit = $560 000:8 = $70 000 (3rd)

    3 units = 3x$70 000 = $210 000 (2nd)

    $210 000 + $70 000=$280 000 (1st)

    Ans:

    1st property costs $280 000.

    2nd property costs $210 000.

    3rd property costs $70 000.
