​

Answer 1

Answer:

300, 400, 800

Step-by-step explanation:

$1500\times\frac{3}{3+4+8}=300\\1500\times\frac{4}{3+4+8}=400\\1500\times\frac{8}{3+4+8}=800$

Answer 2

Answer:

let take 3:4:8 as 3x:4x:8x

3x+4x+8x =1500

15x=1500

x=1500 ÷15

x=100

3x=300

4x=400

8x=800

300+400+800=1500

so we can share it has 300,400,800
