Analyzed it as an engineer and immediately concluded there was nothing to be done to the apples, therefore it had to involve the trio. Solved! Now if you add a morality constraint there is no solution.
I'm a bit disappointed in you guys. Hold the two apples close together and slice one third off both apples with one stroke of the knife. Two children get an apple with 1/3 sliced off and the last child gets the two slices. Just because you normally cut apples one at a time does not restrict you to doing so. I scored low on the psychopathy scale but the violent solution also occurred to me. Al_in_Ottawa
