      I’m not doing the math, but maybe box one is 75% the size of box four?

    I cannot say I know a fourth, simple way of writing 3/4. For this to be funny for me there needs to be one. Help?

        Yeah, i get that there are four boxes, but I don’t feel the joke is funny without there being four actual possibilities and one is left out.

          Three out of the four boxes contain something. That’s the fourth way to do it. Nothing is missing.

            That can’t be it, cause then that’s all 4/4 horsemen of 3/4 present.
