3 men go into a hotel a book a room for a night which is $30, they split the cost between tm so it is only $10 each. after a while the manager comes down and tells the staff that they charged too much for a room and it was only $25. the employee then goes and gives the 3 men $5, but then he thinks that they are not going to be able to split it between them, so he takes $2 from it and keeps it so then he gives the 3 men $1 each.
so the men payed $10 each that = $30 then they got back $3 so that then = $27 then the employee took $2 but that only comes to $29. where did the other $ go ????

The men have $3, and the manager has $27- the $25 for the room, and the $2 he kept.

$25 to the Hotel
$3 back to the men
$2 to the employee
So Hotel + Employee= $27 - Which is what the men paid

they miscalculated. if the men payed $30 dollars total and got back $ 3 dollars, 1 dollar each, thats $27 dollars then the employee took $2 dollars, thats $25 dollars. ther is no missing dollar
