One Confusing Math Problem
Ok Guys,
I have been pondering over this for a while, its confusing, but help if you can, and no, this is not a trick question or anything as such: 3 Men go to a restaurant. The charge is $25. Each of them pay $10. The waiter gives them a $5 bill back, since none of them have coins, they give the waiter $2, and each of them take $1. Now, $2 + $1 + $1 + $1 + 25 = $30 So on the whole each paid $9(they got back $1). 9x3 = 27; 27 + 2 = 29; Where is $1? ![]() |
