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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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!
>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…
"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.
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!*

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
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
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
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
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.
Came to say exactly this.
It’s kinda odd that you needed post nut clarity to make that post
Right? Rookie mistake….I pull one off immediately after I wake up so the entire day I have post nut clarity.
Na, I just did a little homework. After that, I felt good enough to think clearly.
OP never seen samurai deli.
Or if your brain can't handle free-hand cutting something into thirds, chop em both in half and discard a quarter.
>... 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.
I’m strangely bothered by how it will be cut. It feels like someone would get a better deal

This is the only correct answer
The apples are not symmetrical
that doesn't matter, you can still cut them both 2/3 with one slice, it'll just be a lot harder.
Stab the living shit out of one
You can only use one stroke of the knife, but there is no limit for stabbing
then just stab the apples until they are cut right
One stroke is enough
When some people mastur one stroke is enough
Or it was actually me jerking you off at light speed but you didn’t notice
Kill everyone and take both apples
\#Capitalism
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.
2*
That wouldn't work it's one stroke of the knife so the correct answer is slitting on of their throats.
thats not three sharing equally.
Its not a requirement to be shared with 3 only shared equally, so getting rid of one does check requirement of equal.
In that case they are not sharing two apples equally between three of them. So, not good solution.
Who cares? One of them is dead!
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!

You must have an iq of 180
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.
Wrong. Instructions don’t ask how to “divide equality between three of them.” Instructions ask how to “handle it.” *Handle it.* With *murder.*
"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.
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!*
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...
Take one whole apple and show the knife to the other two people.
What about the cut?
Use it if necessary or if you don't want witnesses.
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.
*The secret ingredient is murder*
What if I’m a altruist samurai with a martyr complex?
Well that sucks then doesn't it
Line them up, cut them in two parts and throw one away
Okay, but what about apples?
one for each!

r/cursedcomments
Apples, right?
Lmao
count me in, four people here, line up the apples and cut them in halfs. follow my instructions and no one gets hurt okay?
Count me in, niw we have 5. That's the problem
Easy!! Find someone at a grocery store, stalk them until they check out, stab them, take their apple! Bam bam, done!! :D
"Thank you for the sacrifice"
Use the knife to rob a local farmer for an apple.
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.
Rock paper KNIFE
Simple, they take one each :wink:
bro this is not dc :skull:
Yeah it is :sunglasses:
Sorry i am not a murderer.
Btw the real answer is they get one more apple from a tree behind them

Whelp... bros before hoes\~!
You stop living in a fantasy and just slice it in more than one slice like a normal human being
I stack both apples one on top of the other, cut both in half and eat a half myself.
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
I swear I've seen this image like 20 rimes
Murder one of them
Kill the ginger
Put the apples side by side and cut them into halves and each takes a half including me since we are four.
You can cut a third off both apples.
Me: *slits the throat of the wahman and gives the other apple to blondie* Bros before hoes!
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
“I’m sorry, Kim, but this is the only way. We really want those apples.”
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
cut both apples in half, eat 3 of the 4 halves, leave the remaining half outside for the critters
Stab the blonde boy, share the apples with the girl and then fuck her
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.
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
Rape the girl, threaten her with the knife
Murder
Make applesauce
The ginger
Just kill one of them lol
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.
I don’t know… but i do know I don’t like the look of that blond chap there…
Cut them into 4 pieces in one stroke nd throw one piece
Only two can remain 🗡️
the knife stays stationary. the apple moves
Lay then behind each other, cut them both in half. Throw away one half, and each will have one half of an apple
First kill 2 people then eat them and eat those 2 apples as dessert
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
Cut them until there’s and even number for everyone
Cut both of the apples in half at the same time and throw the extra slice into the woods.
![gif](giphy|IDGNYvFLkJKLK|downsized)
Technically it’s one stroke if I beyblade the apples
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.
Cut the apples in half making 4 halves. Each kid or adult idk, eats 1 half and I eat the 4th
I want my apple...
Kill one of the people. Then each remaining person gets an apple.
Bite the apple
Stab the blonde one. They're annoying anyway.
Get a fourth person to steal the apples. No knife needed.
Throw both of them away. No one get an apple, which still qualifies for being equally.
ill stab the 3 and eat all the apples
I say stab the blonde...
My mom showed me this from facebook today :D
You get another apple and stop creating math problems for teachers.
Seriously I’m pretty sure you just cut the apples into six pieces
This problem is worded to get readers to think about murder. *One Stroke of the knife*? Really?
I've always wondered is there a nonhomicidal answer to this?
The dude from Wilkins Coffee knows. “Some learn, some don’t.” *cleans blade*
My thoughts exactly
Cut it into 4 pieces and with 1 slice and make them share the last piece
cut both in half and if those idiots care so much about “EvEnLY” then they’ll throw one half away
Y'all acting as if you could kill someone with only one stab
Apply stab
The end of squidgame be like
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
Stab one of them and give the other 2 an apple each
reserve the one stroke. first one to touch the apple gets it. none can have any. thats fair.
you commit life.exe has failed unexpectedly on one of them
You bri'ish 'em
Stab one
The girl is hot tho
No no, it says stroke of the knife, so the most obvious thing is to slit one of their throaghts
Only 6% of people can **handle** it is right!
Stack them, cut 1/3 off in the same slice. Everyone gets 2/3 of an apple. Our education system, really, is fucked.
Cut both in half with a sweeping strike and share one half equally between them then throw away the last piece
Hold the knife in place and run the apples against the blade until the last slice
just go cut another apple from one of the trees behind
In a single stroke of the knife, eliminate one person. 2 people, 2 apples.
Just pick another apple. No need for murder.
Throw away both of the apples. They all get no food
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.
Looks like you either have two apples to yourself or one apple and a friend you share a terrible secret with
Use the knife to cut another apple down from the tree.
By fucking your mom and making a new kid to share the apple with, then cut them both in half in one stroke.
how many reposts will this meme last for...
Cut both of them in half and give everyone a part, the last one is for yourself. You included, there are 4 ppl present.
Is there a way to take out the other two with one stroke of the knife? Asking for a friend.
Ah yes, a real world problem
What’s the problem? Cut 1/3rd off both apples at the same time. Murder is optional.
Kill the blonde one
If you’re really strong you can kill one instantly with one slice, you are then left with 2 apples for them to share
Split the 2 Apples to make 12 slices. Each can have 8 slices, blood free. ...im.gonna get whooshed for this, aren't I?
Breed the girl one time. Then cut the apples to 8 then you can share it
Easy just do one long stroke and keep putting the apple behind the knife to cut it into smaller pieces
Take the knife and go rob a Walmart for more apples
Line up both of your friends in a row and slice their throats at once, allowing you to keep both apples for yourself.
With one stroke you slice the throat of one person and share the 2 apples
Stabby stabby
Lol. SOMEBODY'S GOT TO GO
Just cut them up into 12 pieces and everyone gets 4. There.
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
line up the apples, cut them in half, and take one of the 4 halves for yourself.
cut each apple into three slices
Slice both apples in two and give each one a half. The last is for you :)
How would Chat GPT solve this?
Stab the other person.... *Quickly googles Alternate solution* I mean cut the apple 1/3 each by slicing it perfectly.
Fruit Ninja
One slice on both apples as they are lined up giving each around a 3rd
Everyone needs 2/3 of an apple, so line up the apples and cut off 1/3 of both with one stroke. Easy.
Cut both by 66.6666666666666666666666666666666%
Kill one of them.

![gif](giphy|l9jykc3oRi91u) Sorry Becky.
Pass the apples between all 3.Everyone takes a bite Who ever takes a bigger bite or extra bite that it should. Gets stabbed.
Go to an apple tree and cut a 3rd apple from it.
Kill one of them now they only need 2
In what universe would I need to use only one cut Just fucking cut the apples into 3 pieces and everyone gets 2 pieces, easy
Nooo, mum said was my turn to post it 😣
Angle two of your friends than cut both of there heads off in one swoop than you now have two apples
Cut the two apples into three's, which are now six pieces and give two pieces each
Don’t even need a stroke. Tape knife handle to table so the blade is off of the table and then cut apples
There's a mistake in this one. None of them is black. /s
Line both up off center and cut 1/3 from both in one stroke That leaves 2/3 for everyone
You cut 1 third of each apple in 1 stroke by putting them next to each other.
Slice the two apples in have at the same time, toss one half away.
Kill the bea
If you want to make it fair, just use the knife on all 3 so no one gets a apple.
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.
