People asked Mulla, "Do you know anything about math?" "Are you kidding?" Mulla boasted. "I'm an absolute master. There is no formula or rule I don't know." They tested him: "Alright, how do you divide four silver coins among three people?" Mulla answered effortlessly: "You give two coins to the first guy, two coins to the second guy, and tell the third guy to just wait until you get two more coins."
