Division by 3 does not exist

Think about it... how can you have 3 equal parts of an object? The decimate representation is impossible and one side always has to be bigger then the other. This is also why there is no such thing as 360 equal degrees in a circle as one degree has to be off by a little bit... There are no 360 numbers that will add up to 1 whole object either.

Okay then let's take that apple, it may take me an extremely long time, but I could split the atoms that make up that apple into 3 equal sized groups.  The number of molecules isn't divisible by 3?  Fine, I'll break the remainder of molecules up into groups of atoms and give the groups an equal number of those.  The number of atoms isn't divisible by 3?  Fine, I'll break up the atoms into subatomic particles, and give the groups an equal number of those.  The number of subatomic particles isn't divisible by 3?  Fine, I'll break up the subatomic particles into quarks and gluons, and give the groups an equal number of those.  I can keep going, unless you know something no one else does about what makes up these particles and why they couldn't be divided.
