3 boys go to the restaurant. Their bill was 75 rs..
So they contributed 25 each. Manager then gives 5 rs back
to the waiter and then waiter gave 3 rs back to them and
put 2 rs into his pocket..
So their actual contribution is 24 because they got 1-1 rs
back. so 24*3=72 and 2 rs into the waiter's pocket. so
74+2=74
where is 1 rs?

Answer / sourabh jadhav
The ans is like this.....there is nothing like suming in this
There is just a distraction in the last line....the solution goes like this
The boys pay rs.75
The manager gives waiter rs.5
The waiter gives
Boy 1-rs.1 Boy 2-rs.1 Boy 3-rs.1 and keeps rs 2 in his pocket (1+1+1+2+70=75)
The distraction was 24*3=72 and rs.2 in waiter's pocket(72+2=74)

Answer / siddharth shankar paikray
There expense actually turns out to be INR.70.
✓ After the manager allows the discount of INR.5 there share in the expense stands at INR.70/3 each.
✓ There share in the discounted amount of INR.3 after the waiter's nick of INR.2 remains INR.1 each.
✓ Summing all up we'll have,
Share in expense + share in discount + waiter's nicked amt.
= 70/3 + 70/3 + 70/3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 75.
That's it!

Answer / prashanth
If u calculate mathematically then it comes 23.33333
but think in this way.. 25 had given each because they dint
knew the discount 5 rs. so Manager had given 5 rs back to
the waiter to give it to the customer. But waiter will keep
2 rs and give 3 rs back to 3 customers. so finally each each
will get 24 rs per head.
no u calculate back.. 24*3+2.. that will come 74 Rs.. how
come!! where went wrong!!

Answer / ripudaman kochhar
this is only how mathematics is used to create puzzle
in actual every above answer will be wrong if you like as it
is in question.don't give your ways like 75-2=73,so actual
contribution is 23.33,go as it is given in question.
hmm actually what is here if you see question we are
subtracting 3 from 75 then adding 2 to left 72 ultimately
answer will be 24 so now you can know where is Re 1
