Riddle
 

A bit old but here goes anyway:

3 men needed to spend the night in a motel room but niether had enough money so they decided to split the cost and share a room. They went to the front desk and found that the cost for the room was $30.00 so they each put in $10.00 and went to the room. After they left the clerk realized that the room was on sale for $25.00 so he gave the belhop $5.00 to return to the men. The belhop didnt know how to divide the money equally so he decided to give the men each $1.00 and put $2.00 in his pocket.

So, each of the 3 men paid $10.00 but were refunded $1.00 each which means they actually only paid $9.00 each...3 x $9.00= $27.00 + the $2.00 the belhop put in his pocket = $29.00. What happened to the other dollar??

well, 25+3 = 28 + 2 for bellboy = 30

Well I would think that you would minus the $2.00 from $27.00 which would equal $25 the amount of the room http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

of course if Saturn is not aligned with Pluto and it is the fourth month in Siberia..then none of this would work out right http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

No no no no no no no no....
Starting backwards from the $30 that they originally paid, they each got $1.00 dollar back. $30 MINUS $3 = $27. The bellhop kept the other $2 bucks which is where your missing money is at.

Huh??? That still equals $29 bucks???

No. It's not $27 PLUS $2 bucks.... it's $27 MINUS $2 bucks... bringing us back to $25 bucks that was the actual price for the room. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/biggrin.gif
