A long time ago, a wise man in the Islamic country "basically the cousin of prophet Mohammad" had a problem dealing with three men fighting over a fortune that they ware all sharing it in different percentages..
They were 17 camels.
The first man's share in those camels was half of the whole fortune.
The second's share is one third.
The thirds was one ninth.What would you do if you were middled in this?? ps. The answer will be posted in one hour starting from now. pss. POTD should stand for Puzzle Of The Day.

I'd add my own camel for free and then give them 18/2 = 9 18/3 = 6 18/9 = 2 Giving them all exactly what they're due and leaving my camel for me to ride away on before they decide they've been had.:laugh:
Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

Say "here have my camel" then the total becomes 18, and easily dividable [edit] which gives 9 camels to the first guy, 6 to the second, 2 to the third, leaving your camel left over to ride home on :) [/edit]

I would get a butcher, and divide the camels up into steaks.

No, but I'm curious now. Have you? I'm guessing people eat them, like they do horses.
