hi guys
what's up
here is a confusing logic puzzle i would like to share with u, try to solve it
Three people check into a hotel. They pay $30 to the manager and go to
their room. The manager finds out that the room rate is $25 and gives
the bellboy $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room the
bellboy reasons that $5 would be difficult to split among three people
so he pockets $2 and gives $1 to each person. Now each person paid $10
and got back $1. So they paid $9 each, totaling $27. The bellboy has
another $2, adding up to $29.
Where is the remaining dollar?
enjoy!
