Ok, there's three guys that check into a hotel. When they get to the hotel, they order some pizzas from room service. The delivery boy brings the pizzas up and says it'll be $30. Each man pays ten dollars, and the delivery boy brings the money down to the cashier. The cashier says the delivery boy told them the wrong price, and that the pizzas were only $25. So, as the boy is making his way back up to the guys' room with the money, he decides since there is no way to split 5 dollars between 3 men, he would keep two dollars for himself. SO, when he gets to the room, he tells the men the situation and gives them the three dollars, which they evenly divide amongst themselves. But, figure this out, if they paid ten dollars, and they were refunded one, which means they each paid nine dollars, 9x3=27 and the delivery boy only took two dollars. Twenty-seven plus two is twenty-nine. If the original total was $30, where did the last dollar go?
