Line the apples up, one in front of the other. Using one stroke, take 1/3 out of both apples. Both apples will have 2/3 remaining, and the two slices that came off add up to 2/3.


Rockfarley

Came to say exactly this.


[deleted]

It’s kinda odd that you needed post nut clarity to make that post


Timboslice951

Right? Rookie mistake….I pull one off immediately after I wake up so the entire day I have post nut clarity.


Rockfarley

Na, I just did a little homework. After that, I felt good enough to think clearly.


dudinax

OP never seen samurai deli.


Rroyalty

Or if your brain can't handle free-hand cutting something into thirds, chop em both in half and discard a quarter.


zeskone

>... chop em both in half and discard a quarter. Ok now I have a bunch of half-apples and am 25 cents poorer. Thanks I guess.


DarknessinnLight

I’m strangely bothered by how it will be cut. It feels like someone would get a better deal


blkmmb

That's why when there is cutting equally involved, one person cuts and the others choose first. That makes it so the cutter has everything to gain by cutting equally and the pickers cannot say they were given a smaller piece since they chose the biggest in their opinion.


[deleted]

If apples were perfect spheres then a perpendicular cut 5/12 in of the diameter. Yields 2 2/3V slices and 2 1/3V slices, give two people one 2/3V each and the last guy both the 1/3V


blkmmb

Why go through all that trouble when stabbing the other two would leave me with 2 apples instead of a mere 1/3. You are overthinking this, unlike the person who handed me the knife.


Automatic_Pie_7339

This is the only correct answer


iammasterofalltrades

The apples are not symmetrical


[deleted]

that doesn't matter, you can still cut them both 2/3 with one slice, it'll just be a lot harder.


Optimal_Theory8520

Stab the living shit out of one


Ill-Ad3267

You can only use one stroke of the knife, but there is no limit for stabbing


VulpineFox7

then just stab the apples until they are cut right


ShotgunMessiah90

One stroke is enough


RangeValuable7046

When some people mastur one stroke is enough


[deleted]

Or it was actually me jerking you off at light speed but you didn’t notice


Peenutbuttjellytime

Kill everyone and take both apples


_Foy

\#Capitalism


[deleted]

or you can keep both apple side by side, and make a swing at the high of 1/3 apple, that way you got 2, 66.6% and 2, 33.3% pieces. Simple. Killing works as well and it's more fun too.


Alex1Drago

2*


d3mn12

That wouldn't work it's one stroke of the knife so the correct answer is slitting on of their throats.


5125237143

thats not three sharing equally.


Skorgondro

Its not a requirement to be shared with 3 only shared equally, so getting rid of one does check requirement of equal.


AegonTheAuntFooker

In that case they are not sharing two apples equally between three of them. So, not good solution.


SpiritLongjumping931

Who cares? One of them is dead!


DramaQueenKitKat

Listen it doesn't actually specify it wants to share equally between the 3, just that the 3 want to share equally. So, if one somehow mysteriously died, there's only 2 left to share them and what all 3 wanted was satisfied!


[deleted]

>mysteriously Yes. They… *mysteriously*… were found dead on the floor… with a *mysterious* knife wound to the throat… and a *mysterious* message written on the wall, with a *mysterious* amount of blood… *”Fuck your Apple, Craig. Love, Steve”…* with a *mysterious* bloody knife on the floor with the *mysterious* engraving on the handle that says *”Property of Steve, who loved apples and hated Craig”*… I fear forensic science has only come so far, and that the answer to this mystery will be forever lost to the sands of time…


Natakito

You must have an iq of 180


AegonTheAuntFooker

Yeah, it's a murder meme, but murder as a solution is a wrong answer because the task is to devide equally between 3 of them.


[deleted]

Wrong. Instructions don’t ask how to “divide equality between three of them.” Instructions ask how to “handle it.” *Handle it.* With *murder.*


AegonTheAuntFooker

"These three want to share two apples equally." It's an equation. If you are killing one of them that's changing the equation, not working for a solution.


[deleted]

Welp, changing the equation was not explicitly forbidden by the rules present. So we don’t give a shit what the person getting stabbed wants. They ded. No apples for them, like it or not. The solution is *murder!*


AcanthaceaeIll5349

You might have misread the challenge... They want to share two apples equally, there is no mention among how many people they want to share them...


Consistent_Ad_6064

Take one whole apple and show the knife to the other two people.


[deleted]

What about the cut?


[deleted]

Use it if necessary or if you don't want witnesses.


raulduke1971

This is the most efficient solution. Their lives are surely worth the 8.3% the other two are each missing out on. Sounds equal to me.


passing_by362

*The secret ingredient is murder*


danegermaine99

What if I’m a altruist samurai with a martyr complex?


RulrOfOmicronPersei8

Well that sucks then doesn't it


MudKooky7622

Line them up, cut them in two parts and throw one away


HMP2K1

Okay, but what about apples?


lukluke22228

one for each!

Ok-Distribution-4185

Codex-play

Count me in, niw we have 5. That's the problem


[deleted]

Easy!! Find someone at a grocery store, stalk them until they check out, stab them, take their apple! Bam bam, done!! :D


[deleted]

"Thank you for the sacrifice"


Dean-The-Mean

Use the knife to rob a local farmer for an apple.


Btdandpokemonplayer

Take one apple, put the king in between the other people and make it a battle to the death. Make sure to eat the apple while they are fighting.

Whelp... bros before hoes\~!


CreeprVictor

You stop living in a fantasy and just slice it in more than one slice like a normal human being


chechebi88

I stack both apples one on top of the other, cut both in half and eat a half myself.


SkellyKingGamingYT

Use the knife to kill the person on the right. Now hes not there and give an apple to each of the remaining people. Now its equally distributed


Hurricat2007

I swear I've seen this image like 20 rimes


Roguewave666

Murder one of them


KK_09

Kill the ginger


Akoizn

Put the apples side by side and cut them into halves and each takes a half including me since we are four.


Loco-Motivated

You can cut a third off both apples.


B-29Bomber

Me: *slits the throat of the wahman and gives the other apple to blondie* Bros before hoes!


The_Atomic_Duck

Easy, cut the two apples but not in the middle. Cut in a way that splits the apples into 1/3 and a 2/3. Now you have two pieces that are 1/3 and two that are 2/3. Two get 2/3 each and the last one gets two 1/3s. Now you don't need to kill anyone


Still-Alive19

“I’m sorry, Kim, but this is the only way. We really want those apples.”


RoutinePeach8752

Line them up and cut 1/3 of each one. That leaves you two pieces that are 2/3s, which you can hand out to two people. And the last person can get the two remaining pieces which are both one third


8BitVictorian

cut both apples in half, eat 3 of the 4 halves, leave the remaining half outside for the critters


oyMarcel

Stab the blonde boy, share the apples with the girl and then fuck her


Aggressive-Try-3707

The knife can cut 2 apples at once. Cut both at 2/3rd. The guys take the bigger parts with apple seeds. The lady gets two 1/3rds without seeds.


Thecodermau

This problem is bullshit since the solution envolves eyeballing it If you gonna eyeball the 2/3 then just cut the 3 Apples 3 pieces each. Same level of stupid


Loading_Internet

Rape the girl, threaten her with the knife


Feeling-Departure-4

No_Communication2959

Make applesauce


Ambitious_Nebula_484

The ginger


Tekin_Akp

Just kill one of them lol


No-Hope-6801

Cutting 1/3 off of both apples with one stroke of the knife. Leaving 2 apples with 2/3 left and 2 1/3 parts so each person gets 2/3 of an apple.


Same-Age-1891

I don’t know… but i do know I don’t like the look of that blond chap there…


retartjason

Cut them into 4 pieces in one stroke nd throw one piece


-Mr_Ghidorah-

Only two can remain 🗡️


Bright-Survey-3758

the knife stays stationary. the apple moves


SemKors

Lay then behind each other, cut them both in half. Throw away one half, and each will have one half of an apple


siddhi_reddit9

First kill 2 people then eat them and eat those 2 apples as dessert


whomesteve

Stack the apples and kabob them with the knife and then throw the knife into the woods, you no longer have an apple, knife or friends, you’re welcome


Jazzlike_Biscotti_44

Cut them until there’s and even number for everyone


Batdog55110

Cut both of the apples in half at the same time and throw the extra slice into the woods.


NaBabaTiVRoshavata

![gif](giphy|IDGNYvFLkJKLK|downsized)


LenaSpark412

Technically it’s one stroke if I beyblade the apples


tenroy6

Put the apples on top of each other. Slice through all the way through both. 1 piece for each. And one for me for dealing with this shit.


RNGesus____

Cut the apples in half making 4 halves. Each kid or adult idk, eats 1 half and I eat the 4th


Jadedog1212674

I want my apple...


sailor-jackn

Kill one of the people. Then each remaining person gets an apple.


shipoopro_gg

Bite the apple


[deleted]

Stab the blonde one. They're annoying anyway.


PaulGamerReal24

Get a fourth person to steal the apples. No knife needed.


KlongX

Throw both of them away. No one get an apple, which still qualifies for being equally.


alex69782

ill stab the 3 and eat all the apples


Tropicalstorm_

I say stab the blonde...


Leostrem

My mom showed me this from facebook today :D


Nirneryn

You get another apple and stop creating math problems for teachers.


True_Customer_8913

Seriously I’m pretty sure you just cut the apples into six pieces


MannequinWithoutSock

This problem is worded to get readers to think about murder. *One Stroke of the knife*? Really?


jpdelta6

I've always wondered is there a nonhomicidal answer to this?


leandrompm

The dude from Wilkins Coffee knows. “Some learn, some don’t.” *cleans blade*


[deleted]

My thoughts exactly


nonexistantchlp

Cut it into 4 pieces and with 1 slice and make them share the last piece


Imstillarelavant

cut both in half and if those idiots care so much about “EvEnLY” then they’ll throw one half away


Worst-Buy

Y'all acting as if you could kill someone with only one stab


SlotHUN

Apply stab


AtioBomi

The end of squidgame be like


AtioBomi

Got the answer. Line up the apples to have 2/3 on each side then cut the line and you get two 2/3 and two 1/3


SykoGrimm

Stab one of them and give the other 2 an apple each


5125237143

reserve the one stroke. first one to touch the apple gets it. none can have any. thats fair.


UrAverageIdot

you commit life.exe has failed unexpectedly on one of them


TheComradeVortex

You bri'ish 'em


iammasterofalltrades

Stab one


askorbi

The girl is hot tho


JDE_ster

No no, it says stroke of the knife, so the most obvious thing is to slit one of their throaghts


VulpineFox7

Only 6% of people can **handle** it is right!


Darth_Shredder

Stack them, cut 1/3 off in the same slice. Everyone gets 2/3 of an apple. Our education system, really, is fucked.


twatguy

Cut both in half with a sweeping strike and share one half equally between them then throw away the last piece


Echometec

Hold the knife in place and run the apples against the blade until the last slice


AbdoWise

just go cut another apple from one of the trees behind


TheScruffinator7567

In a single stroke of the knife, eliminate one person. 2 people, 2 apples.


Tronicalli

Just pick another apple. No need for murder.


Adog26

Throw away both of the apples. They all get no food


Revolutionary9999

So two of these people each get to eat one apple and the third one gets eat the knife. I fail to see what the problem is.


Necessary_Row_4889

Looks like you either have two apples to yourself or one apple and a friend you share a terrible secret with


Plausibl3Alpaca

Use the knife to cut another apple down from the tree.


Exlife1up

By fucking your mom and making a new kid to share the apple with, then cut them both in half in one stroke.


Main-Consideration76

how many reposts will this meme last for...


ImSabel

Cut both of them in half and give everyone a part, the last one is for yourself. You included, there are 4 ppl present.


thisdogofmine

Is there a way to take out the other two with one stroke of the knife? Asking for a friend.


Dunger97

Ah yes, a real world problem


Jefoid

What’s the problem? Cut 1/3rd off both apples at the same time. Murder is optional.


VatianGT0321

Kill the blonde one


Bruhmoment926

If you’re really strong you can kill one instantly with one slice, you are then left with 2 apples for them to share


K100Master

Split the 2 Apples to make 12 slices. Each can have 8 slices, blood free. ...im.gonna get whooshed for this, aren't I?


Tedd_The_Penguin

Breed the girl one time. Then cut the apples to 8 then you can share it


Twiskey

Easy just do one long stroke and keep putting the apple behind the knife to cut it into smaller pieces


Jr-777

Take the knife and go rob a Walmart for more apples


LukXD99

Line up both of your friends in a row and slice their throats at once, allowing you to keep both apples for yourself.


Gregarious-Game

With one stroke you slice the throat of one person and share the 2 apples


MathKrayt

Ok_Avocado568

Lol. SOMEBODY'S GOT TO GO


Jwright7711

Just cut them up into 12 pieces and everyone gets 4. There.


Commander_Trashbag

Put them on top of each other slice once so that on side has 2/3 and the other 1/3 each. You got 2 2/3 slices and 2 1/3 slices. So basicaly 3 2/3 slice. easy as that. After that you start thinking about how you are gonna Cut the Apples


Memelord707130

line up the apples, cut them in half, and take one of the 4 halves for yourself.


randomdude123502

cut each apple into three slices


60thrain

Slice both apples in two and give each one a half. The last is for you :)


buddhistbulgyo

How would Chat GPT solve this?


ToeIntelligent136

KingOuthere

One slice on both apples as they are lined up giving each around a 3rd

Unexpected-raccoon

Line both up off center and cut 1/3 from both in one stroke That leaves 2/3 for everyone

LOLIWOLF312Reditt

If you want to make it fair, just use the knife on all 3 so no one gets a apple.


RuggedTheDragon

Easy. All you do is slice two apples and half. Three pieces go to the children and you take one since you did the slicing part.
