उत्तर

186 grams

Explanation:

Eldest daughter-in-law = 66 gm of gold

Youngest daughter-in-law has = 40 gm of gold

Middle daughter-in-law has = 80 gm of gold

Altogether they have = 66 + 40 + 80 gm of gold
                                   = 186 gm of gold
Therefore, daughter has = 186 gm of gold
