3 people check into a hotel. The nightly rate is $30.00, and each of the people pay $10.00.
The hotel clerk notices he made a mistake and the rate should have been $25.00. He then gives the bellboy $5.00 to return to the people. The bellboy knowing that he can't divide the $5.00 evenly gives each of the people $1.00 and keeps the $2.00 for himself.
Now since each person paid $10.00 and received $1.00 back their cost was $9.00 each, which is $27.00 and the bellboy keep $2.00, which brings the total to $29.00.
Where is the extra dollar?
The cost of the room was $25 and for each person it was $25/ 3 which is $8.33. So, $8.33 + $1 (which they got back) + $0.67 ( Their money which the bell boy retained) adds up to $10 each or $30 in all.
The cost of the room was $25 and for each person it was $25/ 3 which is $8.33.
Each person paid $10.00 and only received $1.00 back, which means that each person paid $9.00 not $8.33 :)
Now since each person paid $10.00 and received $1.00 back their cost was $9.00 each, which is $27.00 and the bellboy keep $2.00, which brings the total to $29.00.
The "right" way to say it is that each person was given a dollar, which made $3.00. The bellboy kept two dollars, so the total is now $5.00. Subtract $5.00 from the original $30.00, and you get $25.00, which the hotel kept.
Here's one for you:
A wealthy man has his offices in a city some distance from his home. Every day he takes the morning train to the office, and every night he takes the afternoon train back home. He gets off at the station at 5:00 P.M. every afternoon, where his chauffeur is waiting to take him home. The drive home takes two hours, so the man and the chauffeur get home at 7:00 P.M.One day, the man got through at the office earlier than usual and took an earlier train, which brings him to the station at 4:00 instead of 5:00. Not wanting to wait around for an hour for his chauffeur to show up, the man starts walking home. On the way, he meets his chauffeur going to the station, who picks him up and takes him home, which they reach at the usual time of 7:00 P.M.
How long did the man walk before being picked up by the chauffeur?
Anyone? ;)

If the man starts walking, but still gets home at the same time, then I assume that the man walked for one hour, in a big circle, then got picked up at 5.00pm and driven home for two hours as usual.
So we know it's less than one hour, but what's the exact amount of time he walked before being picked up?
A man lives on the 17th floor of an apartment block. Each day he gets into the lift/elevator, goes down to the ground floor and goes to work across the city.
Each evening he comes home, gets into the lift/elevator goes to the 8th floor and walks up the final flights of stairs to his apartment.
He's not trying to get fit, so why does he always walk up the final 9 flights of stairs?
How long did the man walk before being picked up by the chauffeur?
Because he is to small to reach the button in the elevator.
Uses his umbrella to push the button?
Hooray!
