What does the generator do?

The generator picks small ratios and totals divisible by the sum of the parts, so every step has a whole-number answer.

How to solve

Step 1 — find the value of one part by dividing the total by the sum of the ratio numbers. Step 2 — multiply by each ratio number to get each share. Step 3 — answer the follow-up question (difference, sum, or change after a transfer).
