Shady Bubbles 429 June 4, 2014 Share June 4, 2014 You are ..... nothing. Filler for 20 characters. Very good. This is one straight from my grandmother. It irritates me to no end, as I don't actually know the answer Three men came to stay at a hotel, and when they went to the desk to check in, they decided to share a room to save money. The manager assigned them a room and charged them $30 altogether. Each paid $10 for his share, and then they all were shown up to their room by the bellboy. A short while later, the manager discovered that she had overcharged the three men for the room she had assigned them; it was actually only $25. She took $5 out of the till and instructed the bellboy to go up to their room and return the money to them. The bellboy saw an opportunity to make a little extra tip. He rationalized that $5 was difficult to split three ways, and decided to take up $3 to the men, giving each of them $1 return, and pocket the other $2 for himself. So the men each put in $10 and got $1 back. So that's $9 times 3, which is $27, plus the $2 the bellboy took makes $29. Where is the other $1?

I feel like an idiot. But it still doesn't add up, since the men would be paying $27 for a $25 rent. Well, I guess since the bellboy cheated them out of $2 it would make sense.
