Just a little mind teaser for you guys...
Three friends check into a hotel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30, payable in advance. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room. A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the three by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the trhee friends who had just checked in. The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell themt hat the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now, each othe three friends gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhope pocketed $2 and addign that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go?
