Riddle No.2
Now a simpler
one my buds
atleast solve this!
pleeeeeeeease
Three guys in a hotel call room service
and order two large
pizzas. The delivery boy
brings them up with a bill for exactly
$30.00. Each guy gives him
a $10.00 bill, and
he leaves. When he hands the
$30.00 to the cashier,
he is told a mistake
was made. The bill was only $25.00, not
$30.00. The cashier gives
the delivery boy five $1.00 bills and
tells him to take it back to
the 3 guys who ordered the pizza.
On the way back to their room, the
delivery boy has a
thought....these guys did not give him a
tip. He figures that
since there is no way to split $5.00
evenly three
ways anyhow, he will keep two dollars
for
himself and give them
back three Dollars. OK! So far so good!
He knocks on the door and one fellow
answers. He explains about a
mix up in the bill,
and hands the guy the three dollars,
then
departs with his two
dollar tip in his pocket.
Now the fun begins! remember $30-$25=$5
Right?
$5-$3=$2 Right? So what's the problem?
All is well, right? Not quite.
Answer this: Each of the three guys
originally gave $10.00 each.
They each got back $1.00 in change. That
means they paid $9.00
each, which times three is $27.00. The
delivery boy kept $2.00 for a tip.
$27.00
plus $2.00 equals
$29.00.
Where the heck is that other dollar????????????
P.S. for the solution to this problem you have to mail me
at 'abhishekpoddar@rediffmail.com'
or
figure it out here
pizzas cost only 25$ and 2$
tip a totaL Of 27$
thats it they get 1$ dollar back from 10$
9$ x 3 =27$
