Gooooood Morning Riddle Masters!

As the grandkids would say, TGIF! (Thank Goodness It's Friday!). We love our Friday's because we get to give you lot the third and final riddle of the week, so let's get straight into it, shall we?

Baker, Fred Floury has invented a method of slicing a pancake into eight equal pieces, with only three straight knife strokes. How does he do it?

We think this one is a head scratcher, but let's see how you folks go eh?

As always, a 'spoiler' button will hide yours and others' answers. To reveal those answers simply click the 'spoiler' button, but do your best not to cheat! Even just trying to crack the riddle is good for your brain!

So good luck Ladies and Gents, and Happy Riddle-ing!

He cuts it into 4 equal slices with 2 cuts at right angles to each other after having sliced it in half to create a top and bottom half of equal thickness thereby 8 equal pieces.

1 cut the pancake in two and put one half on top of the other half
2 cut this stack in half and then put the stack of two pancake quarters on top of the other stack of two pancakes
3 cut in half again and you have eight equal quarters with just three cuts

Slice pancake in half horizontally. Place one slice over the other. Slice both into quarters. Three cuts. Eight equal pieces.

Slice through the pancake (1 stroke), then without separating the 2 halves, cut the pancake into quarters in 2 strokes. TOTAL 3 strokes - 8 equal pieces.
