Question of the Day (Repeated):
A group of gardeners went to cut the grass of 2 plots of land. The larger plot of land was twice the area of the smaller plot. After working on the bigger plot of land for half a day, one half of the gardeners went to work in the smaller plot of land. The rest stayed on the bigger plot and finished cutting the grass in the evening. However, by evening, an area of grass remained uncut in the smaller plot of land. One gardener then took one day to complete the job of cutting the area of uncut grass in the smaller plot of land.
How many gardeners were there?

(Leo Tolstoy, 19th century, Russia)
