"Simple fraction" joke

A Punjabi peasant was travelling by train with his two infant sons. When the conductor asked him for their tickets, he produced a half ticket.' You are three; you must have three tickets: one full and two halves,' said the conductor angrily.
'When we three travel together, I always buy a half ticket,' replied the peasant naively.
The conductor lost his temper,' You dunderhead, how can three persons become half? Just explain that to me.'
'Simple,' replied the peasant clambering on the upper berth.' See, one over two equals half.'
