"Taking 1 / 4 as the unit of measurement," Li recalls, "he figured that if you take a cake and give it to a one-quarter person, the amount of cake he gets would of course be larger than if you divide it among three one-quarter people, and moreover three times as large."
他的想法是「把 1/4 當作一個計算單位，那麼如果一個餅分給 1/4 個人，當然會比一塊餅分給三個 1/4 的人來得多，而且是三倍這麼多。」
