Answer:

Just divide it.

Explanation:

Take each bar height as 10. There are 3 bars. So the total height is 30. But there is 2 persons, so dividing it will result 15. So according to this assumed answer, I will say you will have to do this :

Give one bar to each of them and the bar should be divided in half, provided that two parts should be there as well as both parts of it should be 5 in height.

So, the upper part was an assume. This time, you mentioned no heights, so I will do it with equation process.

(meaning of each variable)

people = x

chocolate bar = 3

2x ( since 2 people) = 3 ( three chocolate bars )

2x=3

x=3/2

x=1.5 ( one and half )

I hope you understand.
