Okay so listen closely
3 friend went to a hotel, and receptionist tells them that 1 room for all 3 of them costs 30€, so, normally they split the price and each of them gives 10€ for a room. Latter during the day receptionist recalls thar room price is actually 25€. So he hands 5€ to the bellboy and told him to return the money. While he was going to the room, he didnt know how to split 5€ to each of them, so he took 2€ for him and gave to each of friends 1€.
So aftermath is that each of friends paid 9€, and 2€ are kept by bellboy.
So each of friends pid 10-1=9€
9€+9€+9€+2€=29€
Where is 1€?

Customer balance: -10+ -10+ -10 = -30
Receptionist balance: 10+10+10= 30
Receptionist balance: 30-5= 25
Bellboy balance: 0+5= 5
Customer balance: -30+9= -21
Receptionist balance: 25 - 9= 16

5 + -21 + 16 = 0

All money was conserved.

>9€+9€+9€+2€=29€
False

9+9+9+3=27+3=25+2+3

Guests: 30
->
Reception: 25
Boy: 2
Guests: 3

>9€+9€+9€+2€=29€
>+2€

This is the problem. That "+" should be a "-". The friends paid 27€ in total; €25 went to the hotel and €2 went to the bellboy.

>9€+9€+9€+2€=29€
First off it's €9 and not 9€
Second, €9+€9+€9-€2=€25
Wa la

They paid 30. They were supposed to pay 25. Giving each friend 1 back means they paid 27. The bellboy pocketed the extra 2.

25/3=8.333...
8.333...x3=24.999...
So .999...=1
