Guy 1: $10
Guy 2: $10
Guy 3: $10
Clerk: $0
Hotel: $0

Guy 1: $0
Guy 2: $0
Guy 3: $0
Clerk: $0
Hotel: $30

Guy 1: $0
Guy 2: $0
Guy 3: $0
Clerk: $5
Hotel: $25

Guy 1: $1
Guy 2: $1
Guy 3: $1
Clerk: $2
Hotel: $25

Total: $30. Anywho the error comes into play with the 27. You dont add the 2 to the 27, instead subtract from it to get 25.
