Code Challenge: Snacky Friends, a donkey, and Apples

[bplus]

See if this holds up. These guys may eat a few less than you think:

Testing 51

51 / 3 = 17 R 0 fail need Remainder 1 to give to Donkey

'52 / 3 = 17 R 1 52 - 17 - 1 = 34

'34 / 3 = 11 R 1 34 - 11 - 1 = 22

'22 / 3 = 7 R 1 so 7 for each

'26 + 7 = 33 1st
'17 + 7 = 24 2nd
'11 + 7 = 18 3rd
' +4 Donkey
====================
= 79 It works alright

This reminds me of Seinfeld when George started succeeding in Life by doing the opposite of his first instinct.
