Divide a piece of bread

One day two cats stole a piece of bread. They failed to divide it in equal two parts, as both of them wanted the larger part. They fought for that. At last they agreed to put up their problem to the monkey. All the animals of the forest knew him as the wiser animal. They went to the monkey and asked him divide the bread into two equal parts.The monkey behaved very gently with them. He said that it would be costly for them. It was better for them to agree themselves. But the cat said that they had failed to do that.Then the monkey brought a pair of scales and torn out the bread into two pieces. He put the pieces on the scales.The monkey told that one piece was heavier than the other. He took the heavier piece and bit a small piece from it. Then the other piece became heavier. Then the monkey bit a portion from that piece and put it. Each time he put the unequal portions on the scale and bit a part of it to make them equal. Thus he ate the entire bread. The two cats were be fooled by the monkey and went away.
