Valakinek volt 5, társának pedig 3 kenyere. Hozzájuk csatlakozott egy harmadik és miután együttesen elfogyasztották a kenyeret, 2 koronát ad nekik. Hogy fognak ezen az összegen osztozkodni?

Someone had 5 loaves of bread, and their companion had 3 loaves. A third person joined them, and after they collectively consumed the bread, they gave them 2 crowns. How will they divide this amount?
Everyone ate $\frac{8}{3}$ loaves of bread, so one person gave $\frac{7}{3}$ and the other $\frac{1}{3}$ of their loaf, thus they divided the $2 \mathrm{~K}$ in a $7: 1$ ratio, meaning one got $1.75 \mathrm{~K}$ and the other $0.25 \mathrm{~K}$.
