Well,theyareaboutthesame,you'dthink.Andyou'dbewrong.Thedealsappeartobeequal,butinfact,theyaredifferent.Here'sthemath:
Let'ssaythestandardcoffeeis10yuanandlet'sdividetheamountofcoffeeintothreeportions(部分).Thatmakesabout3.3yuanperportion,Thefirstdealgetsyou4portionsfor10yuan(2.5yuanperportion)andthesecondgetsyou3portionsofcoffeefor6.6yuan(2.2yuanperportion)andisthereforeabetterdeal.
