Tikz: several labels with same width at a node

Question

I would like to attach several labels with annotations to a (square) node (the node has the text "32" here).

However, the labels (they have draw) should lie seamlessly together and should all have the same width as the node (with 32).

How do I achieve a suitable font size for the labels? (The label texts should all have the same font size.)

Or what is the best way to do this?

\documentclass[margin=5pt]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[font=\footnotesize\sffamily, very thin,
NumStyle/.style={minimum size=4mm, inner sep=0pt, draw},
LabelStyle/.style={minimum width=4mm, draw, font=\sffamily\tiny, inner xsep=0.5pt, inner ysep=1pt},
]
\node[NumStyle, fill=red, text=white,
label={[LabelStyle, 
scale=0.7%   try ?
]below:{1. Place}},
label={[LabelStyle, fill=yellow, name=P]above:{even (1/9)}},
label={[LabelStyle, fill=purple, yshift=2.7mm]{high (3/9)}},
]{32};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

See the tikz manual, part about shapes. There is one rectangle which you can split into many parts. This is the geometry I read from your question. — MS-SPO, May 01 '23 at 15:23
@MS-SPO Ah, you mean the shape 'rectangle split'. Which offers multiple own options. I didn't even know that shape. Very good idea, I should be able to do something with that. — cis, May 01 '23 at 16:06
Right. Couldn‘t recall the name. Feel free to present an answer if it works the way you like it. — MS-SPO, May 01 '23 at 16:29

Here's a way to do it:

neglecting font
using the part fill as list option
the manual has more examples using nodes directly
making the boxes wider is easy via textwidth

\documentclass[10pt,border=3mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{shapes.multipart}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node [rectangle split, rectangle split parts=4,draw,
       rectangle split part fill=
       {red!80!blue,yellow,red,white}]
{
    high (3/9)
    \nodepart{two} 
        even (1/9)
    \nodepart{three}
        \textbf{\textcolor{white}{\LARGE{32}}}
    \nodepart{four}
        1. Place
};

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Thx! I posted a following-up question here: https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/684495/46023 — cis, May 01 '23 at 18:56

Here's an other way to do it:

define minimum width, height (for rectangles) and size for square
place with absolute coordinates, doing some math by hand/head
could be automized by using the calc library etc.

\documentclass[10pt,border=3mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
%\usetikzlibrary{shapes.multipart}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
    [rc/.style={draw,minimum height=1cm,minimum width=3cm},
     sq/.style={draw,minimum size=2cm}]
 \node [rc,fill=red!80!blue]    at (0,0) {high (3/9)};
 \node [rc,fill=yellow]         at (0,-1) {even (1/9)};
 \node [sq,fill=red]            at (0,-2.5) {\textbf{\textcolor{white}{\LARGE{32}}}};
 \node [rc]                     at (0,-4) {1. Place};

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Thx, but the the parts 'should all have the same width '. So 'rectangle split' is the more elegant way. — cis, May 01 '23 at 19:05
I think, that‘s easy to solve: just adjust minimum size=3cm in the answer, and shift the last node a little. — MS-SPO, May 01 '23 at 19:18
