Answer:

the voltage drops will have the ratio 2 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the loads have the same power factor, the voltage drop will be proportional to the load impedance. The loads have a ratio of 8 : 4 = 2 : 1, so the voltage drops will have a ratio of 2 : 1.

__

We assume the number associated with the load is representative of its impedance (not admittance, or some other measure).
