This is a molded, one-piece fiberglass shower -- there's no pan.
Then put a patch on top, duh.
Fiberglass is repaired with fiberglass. Mix two-part resin, soak/dip glass cloth in, put it on, sand when cured, apply another coat if needed. White pigment can be added to resin. Sand the pan with 80-100 paper before patching, for better adhesion. Use glass "tape", not a wide cloth. Any auto or boating store should have these supplies.
If done diligently, and with pigment more-less matching, there will be barely notable hump if you look close.
People are right, it could be ABS, then you could try a drop of ABS cement into the crack. Fiberglass resin should adhere to ABS too.
Marine sealant like 3M4200/5200 you may try, but remember that this is a sealant, not fastener. It will stop leaking but won't provide much mechanical strength and won't be too durable against constant walking/rubbing in the pan.
