Drag two horizontal guidelines from the ruler at the top of the screen (Window > Bars > Rulers
). The first guideline goes though the center of the top ellipse and the second guideline goes though the second group of ellipses as shown on the left.
Using either the Pen Tool or the Shape Editor Tool, make two horizontal lines that are snapped to the guides and pass though the center of the ellipses.
Group (Ctrl G) the two largest ellipses.
Select the first line and the group we just made and Combine Shapes > Slice Shapes.
Repeat this step with the group and the second line. Delete the top portion of the group. You should be able to apply apply different fills to the two sliced groups.
