Ok so three guys go to rent a hotel room. The man at the counter tells them the room is going to be thirty dollars, so they each pay 10 dollars and
head up to their room. The man at the counter then realizes that he overcharged them and that the room should have been only 25 dollars. He sends the busboy upto their room with five dollars to repay them, but he knows 5 doesn't split 3 ways evenly, so he keeps 2 dollars and gives each man a dollar back. Thatwould mean that each man payed 9 dollars multiplied by 3 would equal 27 plus the 2 dollars the busboy kept. That only equals 29 dollars where did the otherdollar go?
