Hello Julie,

What you're looking for can be accomplished by switching your duration type to Effort Driven.

Here's our help article that details how to use it:

You can also get in to edit that right from the Assignments column by clicking the icon in the corner of the assignments box.

This is already available under [select task] » Edit » Assignments.

Just be aware that like the task itself, the percentage split is not a hard split: the system will do nothing to stop any assigned party from going over-allocation/budget.
