Imagine you have a big playground, and you need to divide it fairly among your friends. Joshua is like the playground leader, and he’s asking each group of friends to pick three members to walk around the playground and draw a map. Once they’re done, they’ll come back and share the map so Joshua can divide the playground fairly.
