The Fair Slice

You baked a cake for four. You cut it into four slices. Your three guests choose their favourite slice first, one after another. You get the one that is left.

Your guests

Ana picks first.
Bo picks second.
Cy picks third.
You get the last slice. You like it simply big: more cake is better.

Your three cuts

How to play

Goal: Cut a cake so you get a good slice, even though your three guests choose first.

  1. Use the three sliders to cut the cake into four slices. The cuts can be anywhere.
  2. Your guests pick in order: Ana first, then Bo, then Cy. Each takes the slice they like most.
  3. Ana loves cherries, Bo loves frosting, Cy likes plain sponge and hates cherries.
  4. You get the last slice, and you simply want more cake.
  5. Press Serve the cake. You see what everyone got. You play three cakes in total.

Tips: A perfectly fair share is 25%. If you cut the cherry and frosting parts into small slices, the guests grab those first and leave you a big plain slice.
