    The Spartans should be 24,000 and the visitors should get 6,000.

    Here are 2 equations that could be written and solved.

    S + V = 3000

    S = 4V

    Now, just use substitution to find the answer.

    4V + V = 3000

    5V = 3000

    V = 6000

    Then, multiply 6000 by 4 to get the amount for the Spartans.
