ANSWER TO BRAIN TEASER
==================================
NOTE: This will become a regular feature of Joke-Of-The-Day.com
The first correct answer was submitted by: STEVENJR
THE QUESTION
3 men went to a motel. The man behind the desk said the room is $30, so
each man put up $10 and went to the room. A little while later the man
behind the desk realized the room was only $25, so he sent
the bellhop back to the 3 guys' room with $5. On the way to the
room the bellhop couldn't figure out how to split the $5 between the 3 men,
so he just gave each one of them $1 and he kept the other $2.
This meant that the 3 men paid $9 each for the room for a total of $27.
Add the $2 that the bellhop kept = $29.
WHERE'S THE OTHER DOLLAR????????
THE ANSWER:
Like all good brain teasers, one has to rearrange the question to truly understand the problem at hand, sort of being a magician with words.
The $2 the bellhop kept should be subtracted from the $27 room total, NOT
added to it. $27 - $2 = $25 (the actual cost of the room.)
