Three men are traveling to a hotel, when they arrive they ask for the price of one room for one night.
The manager tells them the cost is $15, so each man pays $5 and goes upstairs.
Moments later the manager remembers that there is a special and the cost of the room is only $10, so he gives the bellboy five singles and sends him to return the money.
On the way up to the room the bellboy decides that it is unfair to make the three men split $5 unevenly so he gives each of the three men back $1 and he keeps $2 for himself.
Now, if each man paid $5 and got $1 back that means they each only paid $4.
So, 4 + 4 + 4 = $12
And $12 plus the $2 the bellboy kept only equals $14.
What happened to the other dollar?
