Are you sure about that 1/3 fraction?
Because I cannot calculate a way that someone is 1/3.
The denominator should be divisible by 2

Example:
Grandfather = 1/2
Grandmother = 1/4
Male Child = 3/8
marries...
Female Child = 1/2
Grandfather = 0
grandmother = FULL

So then the children of Male Child & Female Child would be
3/8 + 1/2 divided by 2 = 7/16

Notice that the Denominator is always divisible by 2 (2, 4, 8, 16)
