Tuesday May 11th: Three friends check into a motel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room. A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and over charge the trio by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the friends who had just checked in The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them: so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now, each of the three gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go????? COMPLETE Check the first post of page 14 for the answer


The first person to answer CORRECTLY gets rep.

Well, you won
I thought this would be pretty confusing.

wow the one about the word being a different word every time you remove a letter was cool.

Todays riddle is up

$30 (initial payment) = $25 (to clerk) + $2 (to bellhop) +$3 (refund)

$27 (net payment) = $25 (to clerk) + $2 (to bellhop)

$27 (final payment) - $2 (to bellhop) = $25 (to clerk)

The refund is accounted for first and foremost meaning the "initial" payment is $25. Each person gave 9 regardless of who it went to, so even though the bellhop pocketed it, the people still only payed nine dollars. The $2 has already been added to the 27 because the people had payed $9 regardless. $27-$2=$25 dollars which the clerk got.

Woooooooow. Alright you win >_>
