Number of biscuits = 10
Number of biscuits Shiza has = 2
Number of biscuits Sadia has = 6
Number of biscuits Hashir has = 10 - (2 + 6)
= 10 - 8
= 2
ratio = 2 : 6 : 2
= 1 : 3 : 1
sum of the ratio = 1 + 3 + 1 = 5
Number of biscuits to be shared = 220
Shiza gets = 1/5 × 220 = 44 biscuits
Sadia gets = 3/5 × 220 = 132 biscuits
Hashir gets = 1/5 × 220 = 44 biscuits

the share of a is 1/5 and b is 3/5 and c is 1/5.
we can multiply share of each person by his share so we know how many biscuits he taken.
