Answer:

150, 200, 300

Explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio , 3 + 4 + 6 = 13 parts

divide the total by 13 to find the value of one part of the ratio

650 ÷ 13 = 50 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

3 parts = 3 × 50 = 150 ← number of sweets Cia gets

4 parts = 4 × 50 = 200 ← number of sweets Mia gets

6 parts = 6 × 50 = 300 ← number of sweets Tia gets
