What is the optimal way to cut B chocolate bars to share equally between N people, but all people receiving congruent shape parts?
Without the constraint of congruent shape parts, the question was solved here in this group.
I've found this article that uses unitary fractions (Egyptian Fractions) to minimize the arithmetic mean of the number cuts to produce congruent shape parts. But I'm looking for a procedure to minimize the number of cuts, not their mean, while sharing congruent shape parts.
Thanks!
