Mmm, both of them gave Jonathan the same proportion of their bread 0.33 each. So they should split the money evenly 50/50.

EDIT: NO, i was wrong. They have 5 loaves and they were 3. So thats 1.666667 each.

Jacob had 3. So 3-1.666667 = 1.333333. That's he's input.
Joseph had 2. So 2-1.666667= 0.333333. That's he's input.

1.333333+0.333333= 1.666666

So, Jacob propotion is 1.333333/1.666667 = 0.79999964. He should get 3.9999982 coins (0.799999645)
And Joseph's is 0.333333/1.666667 = 0.19999976. He sould get 0.9999988 coins (0.19999976
5)

Sort:  

And where should the rest go?

3.9999982
+0.9999988
=4.999997 on my calculator

Use 2 digits and you get 5. The thing is 1/3 is not exactly. 0.33. But thats the answer and the result is 5.
