[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][black][size 3]Three guys go to rent a Hotel room and the manager tells them he will rent the room to them for $10 a piece.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][black][size 3][/size][/black][/font]
[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][black][size 3]Once the three guys get to their room the manager decides the three guys over paid. So he gives the Bell Boy five $1 bills to go and give back to the three guys. On the way to the room the bell boy realized he could not split the $5 evenly between 3 people. So he decides to keep $2 for himself and then give each of the three guys $1.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][black][size 3][/size][/black][/font]
[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][black][size 3]So if you take the $10 the three guys originally payed for the room and subract the $1 the BellBoy returned to them they now have spent $9 a piece. So if you now take the $9 per person and times that by 3 individuals you come up with $27, then add the two dollars the Bell Boy kept you have $29. What happened to the last dollar?[/size][/black][/font]
