Three
men go to a hotel. The desk clerk gives them a room
for $ 30, so each one pays $ 10 and they occupy the
room. Later, the desk clerk realizes the room had a
off-season discount of $ 5 and should cost only $ 25,
so he sends the bellboy to the three guys room with
$ 5. On the way, the bellboy couldn't figure out how
to split $ 5 evenly between three men, so he gives each
one $ 1 and keeps the other $ 2 for himself.
This
meant that each man paid $ 9 for the room, which is
a total of $ 27. And the bellboy kept $ 2, so the
total becomes $ 29. Then where is the other dollar?
