Leave the knife on the table with them and say "go".

could you estimate which % of the cake would be permanently spread on the table with this method?

Because they're hyper and giving them more sugar would ... you have a point.

Id tape 2 knives together and then cut it. Would be hard, but with perfect positioning you could cut and do it right. Untape them for the third cut if needed.

so your first cut is a spiral starting at the center and circling out to the rim. the second cut is an overlapping spiral. so you've now got diced up little bits of cake. the third "cut" is just using the knife to push the little cake bits into 5 equal piles.

If you can give kids more than one piece...
Looking at the cake like a clock face, make a cut the length of the cake from 0 minutes to 30 minutes, from 12 minutes to 42 minutes, and from 24 minutes to 54 minutes.
Kid 1 gets minutes 1-12
Kid 2 gets minutes 13-24
Kid 3 gets minutes 31-42
Kid 4 gets minutes 43-54
and kid 5 gets minutes 25-30 and minutes 55-60.
Each kid gets 20% of the cake, only 3 cuts made.

Eat the whole cake alone and tell the kids that it's stolen.

If you want to divide a cake equally among five kids but can only cut three times, how would you do it?
