Slice Balance

Your eyes say half. Does the math agree?

How to play

Draw a straight cut through the jelly to split its area equally. Five rounds; invalid cuts cost nothing. Arrows move the cutting line, A / D rotate, Space cuts.

Scoring uses the actual polygon areas after the cut. Equal-looking widths do not guarantee equal area: corners and bulges count too.

A better next run

Estimate the center of mass before choosing a line. Study each ratio instead of repeatedly cutting down the same vertical line.

Scoring and the finish

Each cut scores up to 100 for a perfect 50–50 split. Five cuts total up to 500. A line missing the jelly does not consume a round.

Tips

• Estimate the center of mass before choosing a line. Study each ratio instead of repeatedly cutting down the same vertical line.
