We consider extensions of the Rattray theorem and two Makeev's theorems, showing that they hold for several maps, measures, or functions simultaneously, when we consider orthonormal $k$-frames in $\R^n$ instead of orthonormal basis (full frames). We also present new results on simultaneous partition of several measures into parts by $k$ mutually orthogonal hyperplanes. In the case $k=2$ we relate the Rattray and Makeev type results with the well known embedding problem for projective spaces.
