You said there were three guys so if the bellhop gave then all 3 then what exactly is your question?
and why 9x9 where is that equation coming from?
3 guys paid 10 each for the night
the bell hop gave them each back a dollar that makes 9 dollars for the night each 9 x 3 = 27 + 3 = 30

This is categorized as a "nonsense" riddle. You paid $30, the manager kept $25. There is $5 left (which goes to the bell hop and the 3 men). Each man paid $10, not $9, which was separated in the riddle.

Ahhh, the missing dollar question. It is all in the way that the math is done. Don't fret, the dollar is still there, you are doing the math all wrong. It is one of those riddles to make you more insane then usual.

You figured that like how ya get 11 fingers. So figure it the easier way. It is so easy if you don't put so much thot in it.
