1.) Where's the dollar?
Three men want a hotel room, but there's only one left. It rents for
$10. The men agree to pay $10 apiece to share the room. Afterward the
desk clerk has a change of heart: "I really overcharged those guys.
I'll refund 'em five bucks and only charge them 25." He gives the bellboy
five $1 bills and says. "Give this to the men in 301 as a refund." On the
way upstairs, the bellboy thinks. "it's going to be difficult to split $5
three ways. I'll just slip $2 in my pocket and give them $3-- one apiece."
Now each man has paid $9 for his room: Three times nine is 27. plus $2 in
the bellboy's pocket makes 29. Where's the other dollar?
