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!

^Nope...
They paid the same amount... And if you do the math, there is no other dollar... I think people are just scared away by fractions/decimals, and that's why some people get confused on this one... -W1

Yes, the answer to this is on every stupid ass riddle site on the internet, you are to worried about adding it up to 30, but it wont, there was no other dollar. They each put in 10, and got a doller back, which means they each put in 9, that is 27, the room was 25, and the bellboy got 2. If you are going to post a riddle you should know the correct answer, moron.

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.

^^^just want to point out that i didn't say they paid 9.33 for the room. I said each paid 8.33 for the room and they each have $1 in their pockets. so the equation once again is:
8.33 x 3 = $25 1.00 x 3 = $3 2.00 x 1 = $2 ----- = $30 The riddle is based on the false statement: They each paid $9.00. When in fact they each paid 8.33 dollars, kept a dollar each from the change, and paid .66 cents each to the bellboy from the change. another 30 seconds wasted....

The riddle doesn't ask how much each man paid for what, it asks where is the other dollar, which is the trick because there is no other dollar. Canuck brought the riddle here and cant even grasp it, what the fuck?

ok, i'll try to put kgm's explanation in lamen's:
now tha first part of the math: the 5 dollars back--simple-- 30 - 5 = 25 right now there is 25 paid for the room... then, the math for the five dollars --also simple-- (5 - 2) = 3 , 3 / 3 = 1 so each gets one dollar apiece... now, forget 9 paid multiplied by 3 for each payin and instead look at the 3 dollars that comes back from the refund... add this to the 25 dollars that is paid for the room... --simple-- 25 + 3 = 28 the rest should be easy for grade schoolers: 30 - 28 = 2 this is the 2 dollars that the bellboy gets... 25 + 3 + 2 = 30 and that's just logic...
