Suppose there are three people in society, A, B and C. All have no farms. You have 6 equal farms to allocate to the people in society. Suppose that the utility (U) functions for farms (F) for the three people are given by UA=3√F, UB=2√F and Uc= √F. If you do not know which farmer you are, explain how would you allocate the farms and why. Apply John Rawls' concept of Justice as Fairness.
