The easiest:
create 3 file systems with the wanted size the space left can be allocated later
Not sure you can do it with quotas, and as on holiday ( and cant remember if quota is FS or dir on a same FS based...), cannot check for you, but worth looking at just for the sake of knowing it exist and how it works...

repquota
REPQUOTA(8) BSD System Manager's Manual REPQUOTA(8)
NAME
repquota -- summarize quotas for a file system
SYNOPSIS
repquota [-h] [-g] [-n] [-u] [-v] filesystem ...
repquota [-h] [-g] [-n] [-u] [-v] -a
DESCRIPTION
The repquota utility prints a summary of the disk usage and quotas for the specified file systems.
Available options:
-a Print the quotas of all the file systems listed in /etc/fstab.
-g Print only group quotas (the default is to print both group and user quotas if they exist).
-h Display information in a more human readable format rather than in historic kilobyte format.
-n Display user and group IDs numerically rather than converting to a user or group name.
-u Print only user quotas (the default is to print both group and user quotas if they exist).
-v Print a header line before printing each file system quotas.
For each user or group, the current number files and amount of space is printed, along with any quotas created with edquota(8).
Only members of the operator group or the super-user may use this command.
FILES
quota.user at the file system root with user quotas
quota.group at the file system root with group quotas
/etc/fstab for file system names and locations
DIAGNOSTICS
Various messages about inaccessible files; self-explanatory.
SEE ALSO
quota(1), quotactl(2), fstab(5), edquota(8), quotacheck(8), quotaon(8)
HISTORY
The repquota utility appeared in 4.2BSD.
