There were originally three loaves.

Five end pieces in the picture, plus the one Dr Rinaldi absently munches on as he leaves for six in total. Each loaf would have two end pieces so divide by two to get the three loaves.

stepurhan was pleased with his simple maths, though he still felt very much in awe of the intellects already at the table. He lurked at the back of the room, not yet ready to join such august company. Hopefully, with a bit of mental application, he could prove himself worthy of the honour.

A thread most controversial, that’s what I want to start
Full of impassioned arguments, of posting from the heart
And for this stimulation all will be thankful to me
On come on everybody it won’t work if you agree
