Cut the four tablets in half - take half of each one on Saturday and half of each one on Sunday.

How could you be sure you weren't taking 4 x halves of B (or C) on the Saturday?
Because you're cutting them in half and taking either the top halves (2 B halves and 2 C halves) or bottom halves (2 B halves and 2 C halves) each day - sorry, should've made that clear!
As purplelily said - take the first tablet and halve it. Eat one half AND PUT THE OTHER HALF TO ONE SIDE. Now take the second tablet ... etc.
Is it safe to assume the 'both' should read 'all'?
Thanks crofter - I am useless at explaining what I mean!! :D
Whatever, purplelily - Well spotted!
