so if the cake has a circumference of 36 cm, and you cut it at 12, and 24...you wouldn't get 3 equal slices ??? hmmm i'm not convinced.

Makes perfect sense to me. If you look at it as a clock face you would cut it at 12, 4 and 8.



This is a cake, not a mathematical equation

I'd feel betrayed if my wife enlisted the army of money savers to try to prove me wrong. (although, in this case, scottishf's husband is wrong)
