I suppose the easiest way to explain is by way of examples:

For example if you have 3 queues 
queue : weight
q1        :  80
q2        : 30
q3        : 40

If there is traffic in q1 and q3 then:
     q1 will get 80/120 (ie 66.66%) of the available bandwidth, 
     q3 will get 40/120  of the available bandwidth.

If there is traffic in all 3 queues then:
     q1 will get 80/150 (53.33%)  of the available bandwidth, 
    q2 will get 30/150   of the available bandwidth, 
    q3 will get 40/150   of the available bandwidth.

So I would suggest setting up a queue for each of the 10 users - that
should help share the traffic evenly.
