A stormy night
Three men arrive at a seedy rural Motel.
"We want 3 rooms". The shady desk clerk replies "That'll be $10 -each.
" Each man hands the clerk a $10 bill, they take their keys,
and retire to their rooms for the night.
Minutes later The desk clerk decides -"I over-charged those guys.
Those crappy rooms aren't worth $10." He calls over the bell boy
"Here take this $5 and give those guys
some of their money back..."
On the way over the Bell clerk thinks "Hey I can't divide $5 evenly
among 3 guys, and they don't know how much money
I'm supposed to give back."
he pockets -$2, and gives each man
back -a dollar.
OKAY Now, each man has now paid $9
for his room for the night -?
Since the Bellboy has $2, and 3 x $9 = $27
$27 + $2 = $29
> WHERE did the OTHER dollar -go ? ? ?
