By "you need to explain how and where exactly are you going to do all the cuts" is it enough to say "you cut 1/32 out of the 16 inch cake"? I didn't do that because without some type of measuring device, I figured cutting things in half was the only reasonable measurement you could make. | |

You don't need to consider the volume, area of the circle alone will suffice. The answer should be practical i mean you must be able to do the cuts with just the knife. you need to explain how and where exactly are you going to do all the cuts. | |
