Ah damn it's one of those single-use knives.

Non-murder solution:

Place and hold the apples precisely on top of one another. (Make sure your fingers are not in the way.) From one side of the apple tower, go horizontally exactly two thirds of the way to the other side. At that position, cut vertically through both apples from top to bottom. You now have two pieces that are two thirds of an apple each, and two pieces that are one third each. The kid you like best will receive the end slices without the apple core in it.

More realistically, disregard the stupid premise and make as many cuts as you need.

2/3 2/3

What I find particoularly annoying and interesting, is that most of those "silly/dumb" social network questions are engineered with at least 2, sometimes more layers, for the purpose of getting a reaction not really from the "dumb people" but also, possibly mostly, from the smartass that can't help point out something they think they noticed, incongruity and the likes, unaware that those are there on purpose to bait them in.

This case is a lot more blatant, possibly fake, but the "controversial" interpretation of stabbing one of the children is not an afterthoughts of the sick mind of us memers terminally online, it's probably the core reason the thing has been shared and worded that way.

I just hope my own reaction has not been 100% predicted.

Line em up and cut a third off both apples in one go? Everyone gets 2/3? Seems simple right? Consider the core. I don't think it's possible if you consider the core. You have to kill one of your friends.

You have to kill one of your friends.

You have to kill one of your friends.

Choose which one of your friends to kill.

Reach for the knife before someone else does.

You have to kill one of your friends.

If you have one guy draw the knife over a long surface and distance, the other two can use that one slicing motion to cut the apples any number of times.

ONE STROKE, 99 cuts!

That's socialist propaganda! You see, you cut both apples in half with one cut, everyone gets half an apple and the remaining half is given to someone who struggles affording life.

(/s)

My solution is cut both apples in half, and take two halves, because I am more equal than others.

Kill one person?

Bold of you to assume I'm not going to go Voorhees on both of them, have an apple as desert and save the second apple for later.

Obviously, I'm not going to eat the other two people. Without cooking them. And with the apple cores, I can make a lovely sauce to go with

I guess the answer they are going for is slice the apples straight through, horizontally, 1/3 the way up from the bottom, so you have 2/3, 1/3, 2/3, and 1/3 apple portions. Then you give 1 person the 2 1/3 portions, and the other 2 get one of the 2/3 portions each.

But we all know the actual answer people are thinking of

shouldn't be that hard, but I understand that 94% can't do it.

line up the apples, a line that will cut the first apple into 2/3 vs 1/3 will also cut the next apple in same proportion. 1 person gets the 2 sliced 1/3s

Cut both apples in half. One half for the blonde, one half for brownie, one half for the ginger, and the last half for the animals or something.

Just eat out the apples together, ignoring the knife. Just take a bite and pass the apple to the next person, repeating the process until there is just a core. Not very sanitary, but mission accomplished.

This is impossible as the apples aren't homogeneous. Otherwise: have one person slide each apple across the knife until they feel their side is fair. The slice and pick. This does not work here as there are more than two people.

Because the 6% are psychopaths capable of murder. I thought it was closer to 3% of the population though
