Now I have a question for you.
Three ladies are on a road trip and stop at a cheap hotel. They split a $30 room. Each gives $10 to the clerk.
Later, the manager comes in and tells the clerk that that room was on special for $25. So he gives the clerk $5 and tells him to take it to the ladies and divide it between them. On the way, the clerk can't figure out how to split $5 three ways so he pockets $2 and gives each gal $1.
So each lady has now paid $9. And the clerk has $2.
9 times 3 is 27 plus the 2 the clerk took equal 29. My question, Eejit my freind, is where did the other dollar go?
