Here is something that would give you a brain fart lol.

Three friends were staying at a hotel and decided to buy pizza, which
was $30. Each friend paid $10 evenly. So when the bellboy went to the
chef, the chef said that there was a mistake in the bill, because the
pizza was actually $25. So as the bellboy was walking to the 3 friend’s
room he thought to him self and decided that since you cant split 5
dollars evenly among 3 people, he would take $2 as tip and gave each
friend $1 back.

So….. If 9 x 3 = 27 plus 2 is $29.00 what happened to the last dollar?

c'on people, think

The answer: it is a mathematical equation, just use your numbers lol

Each friend initially paid $10. But the pizza was only $25 total,
meaning that each friend should have paid $8.33. This means each one
overpaid by $1.67. The bellboy gives each one $1 back, meaning each
friend has still paid $0.67 more than the actual cost of the pizza. The
$0.67 x 3 comes to $2.00 which is the amount of the tip. So there is no
last dollar.

well done!!! you got an A!!!!!!!!

The things you can learn on JSH!! Thanks, NYC, at least I got something
right today!

you are welcome and you did great!!

$25+ 43(1 ea) + $2 he kept = $30

Now Kojack explai how you come up with that please!

Sluggo took it

PIZZA 25 + 1EA*3 =3 +28+2 TIP = 30

nop think again kojack !!

PIZZA 25 + 2 TIP + 3 = 30

Dang Lex...I was gonna say that

See, the deceptive thing is the 9 x 3, because there never really is a
9. There's a $9.33 for each ($8.33 for the pizza + $1.00 back) friend
prior to the bellboy taking the tip, but if you fall for the 9, you'll
never get the numbers to match up.
