Both, obviously.

How could it do that Russell and be sure it was evenly split?

Great question. Even if you Draw from Both, remember the path of least
resistance takes over.  If one goes dry, the pumps will not draw from the
other.  Be careful. We added Diodes (check valves) in a go kart to keep one
tank from draining to the other, but the low tank takes over and reports
empty to the engine.
