7+8 is 15
you want 45, i.e. 3 times as big, so use
21 + 24 = 45

When you want to split something into a ratio, you do this:

Add the numbers in the ratio: 7 + 8 = 15

Get two fractions, using the numbers in the ratio and the total: 7/15 and 8/15.

Apply those to the total
45 x 7/15 = 21
45 x 8/15 = 24

The results should add up to the total: 21 + 24 = 45

A lot of ratio problems are done like this.
