a penny apiece

cut a big circle out of a sheet of paper. place seven pennies on the paper circle as follows:
  1. place six pennies, evenly spaced, around the outer edge of the circle. label the top penny "a," and the others, "b," "c," "d," "e," and "f," going clockwise around the circle.
  2. place one penny in the middle of the circle. Label it "g."
now divide the circle into sections by drawing three straight lines so that there is only one penny in each section.
