4 Small Pieces

Explanation:

So if they each had a piece, that would mean that there are two large pieces.
Now, each of them cuts their pieces into thirds (3 pieces), making 6 total small pieces.
If 1/3 of each large piece is used up, then there are 2 small pieces of each large piece left. Making 4 small pieces left altogether.
