3 men rent a hotel room for 30 dollars. Each one pays 10 dollars. The man at the front desk notices that it's 25 dollars, and sends the bellboy up to their room with 5 1 dollar bills. On the way, the bellboy can't figure out how to split the money 3 ways, so keeps 2 for himself. This mean that each man paid 9 dollars, and 9 x 3 = 27, plus the 2 dollars the bellboy has, which is 29 dollars. Where is the other dollar?
1k to spend |

The three man should pay $25 for their room,or each one should pay $25/3,not $9.
The dollars:$25 charged,$3 returned, $2 kept by bellhop.no extra . |

Was I right?
Oh and wait. 30 bux to begin with then its 25 so the boy gets 5, keeps 2 then gives 1 to each guy. So since there are 3 guys, 3x1=3 soo 3+2+25=30... |

@Error
They paid $10 each, and it was suppose to be only 25$. So they get 5 bux left. 5 - 3 = 2. They paid 9 dollars each. |

$25 plus the bellboy "tip" of $2 = $27. 27/3=$9 each. So they each get $1 back on their $10. 9x3=27+ 3=30.
