james campbell Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 not a joke but still very coolthree guys need a hotel each guy has 10 bucks, they find a hotel and the guy wants to charge 30 bucks for the night.so each guy gives the man 10 bucks. later the man decided he charged too much so he gave the bell boy 5 bucks,the bell boy kept two and gave the men 1 buck each,so now they only paid 9 bucks each for the room,but 9 times three is 27 plus the 2 the bell boy kept is 29,where did the other dollar go. now your answer can't contain cents because only whole dollars exchanged hands...... have fun and let the debate begin:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightORamaDan Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 What was paid is 27 ( 9 by each guy )What is now held is 27 ( 2 and 25 )You can't mix up total payment (27) and partial amount held (2) and expect them to add up to any particular number.

You see you forgot the biggest one, TAXES.... So out of that $30, government gets $26.. room is still 25, then bell boy, well he gets that $2, but since you employed him, you got to pay all the taxes needed for that.. SO you're in the hole!You're surprised it was only $30? Heck I'm surprised it was that high! My luck it would of been $.01, and a lollipop!
