-- Adjust the direction of the knife so that it's parallel to the length of the cake,
and cut (1) the cake down the middle ... 2 equal pieces.
-- Turn the knife 90 degrees so that it's parallel to the width of the cake,
and cut (2) the cake down the middle ... 4 equal pieces.
-- Stack the 4 equal pieces in an even stack, so that their edges all line up.
Cut (3) the stack in two equal pieces, either length-wise, width-wise, or
along either diagonal ... 8 equal pieces.
Alternate method for any one of the cuts described above, (1) or (2) or (3):
-- Turn the knife so that the blade is parallel to the cake-board and half of
the height of the cake above the board. Slice through the height of the cake,
keeping the knife parallel to the cake's bottom surface, to its top surface and
to the cake-board, cutting the whole cake into an upper layer and a lower layer
of equal thickness.

What is a perpindicular bisector?
A line which cuts a line segment into two equal parts at 90°.
How do you cut a cake into 8 equal pieces in 3 cuts?
Well, buttercup, first you slice the cake horizontally into two equal halves. Then you stack those halves and make a vertical slice down the middle, giving you four equal quarters. Finally, you stack those quarters and make one more vertical slice down the middle, giving you eight equal pieces. Voilà, you've got yourself a perfectly sliced cake in just three cuts.

How can you divide a sphere in 8 equal parts in 3 steps?
To divide a sphere in 8 equal parts in three steps: * Cut a plane through the most circular part of the sphere - this cuts the sphere in half * Cut a plane perpendicular to the first plane with the lengths aligned - this cuts the sphere in four pieces * Cut a plane perpendicular to the first plane at a right angle to the second plane - this cuts the sphere into eight pieces
How do you cut a square cake into twelve equal parts with four cuts?
Cut the cake lengthwise and then crosswise. Stack the four pieces and then cut crosswise at one third the length and again at two-thirds the length. Done!
How can you cut a round cake into 8 equal slices using only 3 cuts?
Takes the CakeHere are the steps involved:Cut from 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock (this give you 2 pieces).Cut from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock (this give you 4 pieces).Cut the cake in half horizontally, slicing through all the pieces. Imagine that you were cutting through the whole cake to put icing in the middle (this give you 8 pieces).

Cutting a cake into 16 pieces with 5 cuts?
All your cuts will be diameters, which means all the cuts will be straight lines that pass through the center of the cake. Your first cut can be anywhere, as long as it's straight and passes through the center. But to make things easy, make your first cut vertical. You now have two equal pieces. Then rotate the cake 90 degrees and make a second diameter cut. It will be perpendicular to the first cut. You now have four equal pieces. Now, rotate the cake 45 degrees and make a third cut through the center. After doing so, rotate the cake 90 degrees from the last cut and make a fourth cut. You should now have eight equal pieces. By now you should be getting the idea. You have to make four more cuts. Each cut should be through the center and should exactly halve the eight slices. This will produce 16 equal slices. By the way, having the interval is a good way of cutting up a square or rectangular cake, too. Every cut should halve the remaining pieces. You start by cutting the cake in half. Then you cut the halves in half. Then you cut the quarters (halves of halves) in half, and so on.
