i've got an interesting one. think i'd posted before.
anyway...
mike, pete and lance spent a night together in a hotel room. The
bill was $30, hence each paid $10. They left.
Hotel owner discovered they had overpaid, the bill is supposely
only $25. Being a honest man he sent his steward after the 3 men to
refund them $5.
The steward now faced a problem, how is he going to divide $5
equally by 3 people? He decided to pocket $2 and refund $3 back to
the three men.
Hence mike, pete and lance each effectively paid $9, total $27 to
the hotel. The steward had pocketed $2. Hence total of $29.
BUT initially there is $30 to start with.
So where did the $1 go??
