3 friends went to a motel late at nite.. they wanna ck in and the clerk told them it cost $30 a nite per room. They were cheap so they decided to sty in one room.. everyone took out $10 for the rent and just when they bout to head to their room the clerk told them he is giving them a discount 5 dollar.. so everyone was happy.. each of them got $1 dollar back. and the $2 extra they gave the bag handler for tip.. this means each of them paid $9 dollar 9X3= 27 + the 2 dollar they gave for tip = $29 where is the $1? |
That's so old...
Instead of subtracting the tip to find out how much they paid for rooms (27 - 2 = 25) you add it to get the number 29 which is meaningless. It's simply a misleading question. No money disappeared, they paid $25 for the room and $2 for the tip, which is $27, $9 each. They did not pay $29, they paid $27. The numbers 29 and 30 are insignificant at the end of the question.
