The Inheritance Share of the Deceased's Wives

Question
A man passed away and left behind two wives, one of whom has given birth, while the other has not. Do they share equally in the inheritance, or does each one have a different share?

I say, and with God's success: The eighth is divided equally between them, and God knows best.
