Slice of Pie

by Helen Yu tags: algebra, math, validation

Summary

Create a function that determines whether or not it's possible to split a pie fairly given these three parameters: Total number of slices. Number of recipients. How many slices each person gets. The function will be in this form: equalSlices(total slices, no. recipients, slices each) Examples equalSlices(11, 5, 2) ➞ true // 5 people x 2 slices each = 10 sl

Instructions

Create a function that determines whether or not it's possible to split a pie fairly given these three parameters:

1. Total number of slices.
2. Number of recipients.
3. How many slices each person gets.

The function will be in this form:

equalSlices(total slices, no. recipients, slices each)

Examples

equalSlices(11, 5, 2) ➞ true
// 5 people x 2 slices each = 10 slices < 11 slices

equalSlices(11, 5, 3) ➞ false
// 5 people x 3 slices each = 15 slices > 11 slices

equalSlices(8, 3, 2) ➞ true

equalSlices(8, 3, 3) ➞ false

equalSlices(24, 12, 2) ➞ true

Notes

• Return (trivially) true if there are zero people.
• It's fine not to use the entire pie.
• All test parameters are integers.
• Don't forget to return the result.
