Another Number Game
IP:
3 dudes be goin to a hotel. They wanna a room with 3 beds, so the guy said:
"it'll cost $30.00" So each guy gives $10.00, and tells the bellboy to bring up the bags. Ten minutes later the bellboy knocked on the door with the bags in his hands, and said: "we forgot about the special rate right now, the room is only $25.00!" and he gives them back $5.00. So each guy took a dollar each (= $3.00) and gave the bellboy a $2.00 tip. So then each guy paid $9.00 for the room, and the bellboy got tipped $2.00. DO the math......9 x 3 = 27...........27 + 2 = 29............ $29.00.....where did the other $1.00 go?

If They All Gave A Dollar Each, Why Is It A $2 Tip? Its Three, Thats where Its Missing??

no. $5.00 (refund) - $3.00 (each) = $2.00 (tip) They took $1.00 back, which means they only paid $9.00 each. The $5.00 refund got split evenly with the three of them, and the $2.00 leftover went to the tip.

$25.00 for the room devided by 3 means they each paid 8.33 for the room, and they each have $1 left in their pockets. Add a $1 to $8.33 = $9.33. $9.33 x 3 + the $2 that was given as a tip = $30.
well, there's 30 seconds of my life i will never have back.

Yea, I know, but it's how you say it. They paid $10 at first, then they got $1 back, so they each paid $9, gave $2 to bellboy, so it's 27 + 2 = 29!

If they each paid 9.33 for the room it would be more than 25, and they would have got 67 cents back instead of a dollar. You are wrong, deal with it.

Nothing happened. There was no "other dollar".
The three men had paid $9 each, or a total of $27". $25 went for the hotel room, and the bellhop kept the remaining $2.
