Matthew and Miriam married in 1960 at 18 and 19 respectively, and had seven children, Marsha, Marcus, Mindy, Michelle, Madison,Mason, and Maverick. Marsha is single and never birthed any children. Marcus has two children, Nia and Nicole. Mindy has three children, Abigail, Amy, and Ashley. Michelle is the fur mother of two dogs. Madison is the mother of 3 daughters, Kai, Kelli, and Katie. Both Mason and Maverick remains bachelors and have no children.

Shortly after celebrating their 55 anniversary, in December 2015, Miriam died in a plane crash along with two of her daughters, Mindy and Madison. Overwhelmed by the loss of her devoted wife and his loving daughters, Matt's health declined and he died six months later - the doctors suspect from a broken heart.

Unfortunately, Miriam was the planner of the family and therefore, Matt never executed a will.

Please analyze and determine how Matt's estate will pass to his children according to intestate succession statutes:

1. Per Capita (5 points)

2. Per Capita with Representation (5 points)

3. Per Stirpes (5 points)
