3 MEN GO INTO A MOTEL.

THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS $30, SO EACH MAN PAID $10 AND WENT TO THE ROOM.


A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALIZED THE ROOM WAS ONLY $25, SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' R OOM WITH $5.

ON THE WAY, THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT $5 EVENLY BETWEEN 3 MEN, SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A $1 AND KEPT THE OTHER $2 FOR HIMSELF.


THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID $9 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF $ 27, ADD THE $2 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = $29.

WHERE IS THE OTHER DOLLAR?

got this email the other day....freaked me out... The answer lies with Hmontanna....

uh... the butler did it!!

your mom took it

Well if you divide 25 by 3 men, they each initially would have paid 8.33, which then add 1 each they each paid 9.33 which makes 27.99 or 28... and then the bellboy got the extra 2

If the men were overcharged 5 bucks, then the clerk pocketed 2 and refunded each man 1. They paid 10 bucks each. The 2 the clerk pocketed and the 1 returned to each man was paid from the 5 that was overcharged to begin with.

I cheated

If you take 25 divide it by 3 it is 8.33 a repeating decimal then add $1 to that and you have 9.33 repeating times this by 3 and you have 28. So you add the $2 the bell boy took to it and you have the original $30.

The math in the Joke is wodered to confuse the person reading it but you do the math correctly the trick is in the repeating decimal, because 25 is not divisble by 3.
