    Where's the 2 dollars!



    3 guys walk into a hotel and to save money share a room... The clerk tells them the rooms 30 bucks and each man hands the clerk a 10 spot and a bellman takes them up to the room. When the bellman gets back to the front desk, the clerk says he's made a mistake and the rooms only 26 bucks. The clerk then gives the bellman 4 bucks in change and tells him to take it to the men. On the way back to the men the bellman realizes that he can't divide 4 dollars into 3 men evenly, so he pockets a buck as a tip. He gets to the men and gives each one back a 1 dollar bill. In the beginning each man payed a 10 dollar bill, Each man got back 1 dollar. SO each man has paid 9 dollars. 9x3=27 PLUS the dollar in the bellmans pocket is 28, Wheres the other 2 dollars?

      Well, the math is incorrect but it does make a good riddle if the person doesn't catch it

        I thought this was a thread about "Better off dead."

              The price of the room has changed from $30 to $26, plus you've reveresed an operation, and thus your math is simply incorrect.

              9x3=27 PLUS the dollar in the bellmans pocket is 28, Wheres the other 2 dollars?
              In reality, $9 x 3 = $27 MINUS the dollar in the bellman's pocket which equals $26 or the price of the room. No money is missing.
