A story problem, if you will:

Lene has enough minced meat to make (J)Ole four tacos (she's having something else, but that's not important since she's merely a woman ). As she finishes dinner preparation, her brother arrives with three fish he recently caught and, learning of the tacos, asks the couple to share them, but there isn't enough beef for two people. How can this situation be resolved to the satisfaction of both the fisherman and the taco eater?

Does he ask the couple to share his fish with him or does he ask the couple to share their tacos? - 18/06/2011 04:16:05 PM 334 Views
