Missing Money
Alright, 3 guy's check into a hotel and the room is $30 so each guy pays $10. They head up to the room to have a couple cold ones.:c: The front desk realize they overcharged the men so they send the bellman up to their room with $4 that they overcharged. Well they decided each guy would take a $1 back and give one to the Bellman for bringing it up to the room. Now heres the problem each guy paid $10 but got a dollar back so they each paid $9 and the Bellman has one. 9x3= 27+1=28 where is the other $2 They started with $30
Old one but a good one lol lol lol Never trust those Bellmen |
prolly had sompin to do with beer or wemmenz
2 bucks wont get ya much though |
lol lol lol

the correct price is $26(cause the price was 30 and send 4 back 30-4=26), add in the 3 dollars for the guys and 1 one dollar for the bellmen and you get 30 dollars........that was simple........

i dont see how im wrong......they are overcharged 4 dollars, which makes it 26......split the returned money 3 ways and give the bellman 1, that equals 4, add 4 to 26 and that makes 30....seems to work out fine for me.......i dont care what they ask in the riddle, that is the right solution.....

It's not missing. It's in the hotels cash register.

there are several versions of this joke with varying details, sometimes they get $5 back and the bell boy steals $2, or the guy at the register takes 2 and returned $3......
