ok i know the answer to this riddle but i want to know if anyone can get it right.
ok three guys walk into a motel they talk to the clerk rooms are $30 the clerk says so each of the three pay $10 the three get to their room and then the clerk realizes he over charged the 3 by $5 so he calls the bell boy he gives the bell boy the $5 bills. on the way to the room the bell boy realizes he can't split $5 evenly between 3 guys so he sticks 2 in his pocket he gets to the room and hands each guy one dollar.
ok so now the three paid $9 which equals $27 each and the bell boy took $2 which equals $29 were did the last dollar go?
first right answer 10 points
you are write natalie
you do get 10 points
but i was looking for the math is correct but the solution is not probable because it is right math they did technically pay only $9 each and the bell boy did put $2 in his pocket but it does not equal thirty
but you did have it correct in the fact that the dollar never was missing.
