Children are evil and the mafia game is proceeding as usual: poorly for townies.
I hate these types of riddles. They confuse you with the second half and then make you forget about the manager and his register.Three guests check into a hotel room. The manager says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the manager realizes the bill should only have been $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 as five one-dollar bills to return to the guests.
On the way to the guests' room to refund the money, the bellhop realizes that he cannot equally divide the five one-dollar bills among the three guests. As the guests are not aware of the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 back and keep $2 as a tip for himself, and proceeds to do so.
As each guest got $1 back, each guest only paid $9, bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop kept $2, which when added to the $27, comes to $29. So if the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1?
Yup. Why add bellhop stolen money to what the guests paid.I hate these types of riddles. They confuse you with the second half and then make you forget about the manager and his register.
$30 = $1 in guest pockets *3 = $3 + $2 in sneaky lying bellhop pocket = $5 + $25 in the register = $30
