Ok, now let's figure out why different arrangements of cuts produce different numbers of pieces. Imagine the simplest tomato possible. It's just a point. There's no room for any cuts in a point. Boring! So imagine a slightly more complex tomato. It's just a line. This tomato can be cut into segments but since a line has no space side to side we can't make any perpendicular cuts so there's only room for one set of cuts. Coincidentally, we say that a line is one dimensional. 3/x
