The scene
Community Kitchen · Welcome teaThe cook cut three identical cakes into eight slices each. Three volunteers took a tray to separate tables and returned whatever was left.
Exactly one person ate a slice on the way. The groups confirmed how many they received, and the tray counts reveal where a piece is missing, without judging anyone by crumbs on their clothes.
What we know for certain
Each volunteer left with eight slices. One person ate exactly one on the way, and nobody else ate, lost or exchanged any pieces away from the tables. The quantities delivered and returned are verified; no slices were divided.
