Three men goes to a hotel to stay ,the clerk says $30 per room/day so all the three plans to stay in one room so each pays $10.After some time the clerk realises that he made a mistake of collecting $30 but the room cost only $25,there fore he decides to return $5 to them so he calls the room boy and gives him $5 asking him to return. The room boy keeps $2 with him and he returns only $3($1 for each). Now Totally all have paid $9 each($27)+room boy $2 which is equal to $27.where did $1 go,who has made the mistake?
Answer / Arun Kumar Gaur
The clerk initially made a mistake by charging $30 instead of $25. When he realized his error and returned $5 to the customers, the room boy should have given back the full amount of $5 to the customers instead of keeping $2 for himself. Therefore, the $1 that went missing is the $2 that the room boy kept.
