You have a sheet cake. There is a rectangular piece missing
from the inside of the sheet cake. The location of the
missing piece is arbitrary. I was told I could assume I had
the means to make the cuts. How do you divide the sheet
cake into 2 even proportions with 2 cuts?

Answer / sumanthdarisi
what i am thinking is ....
they given a sheet cake...we can give 2 cuts to get even
proportions of the cake in "2" ways
1.We can cut the cake vertically along the centre of the
missing rectangular part or
2.We also cut the cake diagonally which also passes through
the centre of the missing rectangular part
In above 2 cases we can giv a gap at missing part
while "cutting"
so it take 2 cuts to cut the cake into 2 even
proportions !!!
