3 guys book a triple room in the hotel.
The manager tells them it's £30 total so they all throw in £10.
After a while the manager realises the cost should only be £25......so he gives his assistant £5 to give back to them.
On his way the assistant decides to keep £2 himself and gives them ust £3.
So......in effect they have paid £9 each x 3 which =£27.
So....if they have paid £27 and he has kept £2.......where has the missing £1 gone?
If you know this one give others a chance.
Do you have any good puzzles ?
