HOW CLEVER ARE YOU?


3 MEN GO INTO A HOTEL.

THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS £30.00

SO EACH MAN PAID £10.00 AND WENT TO THE ROOM.

A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALIZED THE ROOM WAS ONLY £25.00

SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' ROOM WITH £5.00 ON THE WAY THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT £5.00 EVENLY BETWEEN 3 MEN,

SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A £1.00 AND KEPT THE OTHER £2.00 FOR HIMSELF.

THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID £9.00 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF £27.00, ADD THE £2.00 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = £29.00 WHERE IS THE OTHER POUND?

Post your answer under the comments page below and lets see how clever you really are!

There is no extra dollar.

The barkeep maintained $25 The employee retained $ 2 The customers refunded $ 3 ___________________________ $30

Each customer paid $25/3 to the owner and $2/3 to the employee, for a grand total of $27 and a subsequent refund of $3.

there is no missing dollar.
