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!

Cut across the centre & fold the top half over the bottom half,
Cut through the centre of the two halves and place four quarters on top of each other,
Cut through the centre of the quarters = 8 equal pieces.

He folds it in half then half again then half again creating stacked wedge which he then cuts each side off and a small cut along the tip - hence 3 straight cuts … this will produce 8 equal wedge shaped pieces 🤤

Cut the pancake into quarters using two cuts. Arrange the four quarters on top of each other and use the third cut to cut the quarters in half, resulting in eight slices.

Fold the pancake over twice to make it a quarter in size, cut down the middle and the 2 outer edges of the 'triangle' making 8 even pieces.
