A Bit Of Math! -
18th July 2005, 03:36 PM
Three men go into a motel. The desk clerk said the room was $30, so each man paid $10 and went to the room.
A while later, the desk clerk realized the room was only $25, so he sent 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 gave each man $1 and kept the other $2 for himself.
This meant that the 3 men each paid $9 for the room, which is a total of $27. Add to that the $2 the bellboy kept and the total is $29.
Where is the other dollar?

lets do it the other way....
three of them acutally paid $25 to the hotel, $ 2 to the bell boy and $ 3 is returned to each of them....so total is $30.

Total cost of the room = #25
How was it paid?
3 x $9 = $27 - paid by the 3 individuals
Less $2 paid to the bell boy = $25
