They were the only subjects of Ymir in existence at the time, so when Ymir died wouldn't it make sense that they would inherit three titans each from her? And then assuming they had three children each, that could split the three into nine. No. If anything the power of the Titans would be given to the three daughter's offspring. The way it works is, if a Titan Shifter dies their ability gets passed on to a baby that is born, having already been born the three daughters couldn't inherit it any other way.
