Three guests check into a hotel room. The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally. As the guests didn't know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep $2 for himself.
Now that each of the guests has been given $1 back, each has paid $9, bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop has $2. If the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1?

Good luck fags.:D

the $2 that the bellhop has, is part of the $27

because the 3 guests paid the hotel $25 and the bellhop $2

Stop adding where you're supposed to subtract, faggot.

30=10+10+10
30=25+5
30=25+2+3

I don't see the problem here.
