【The Lost 1-Abrainteaseraboutthelost1】- A brain teaser about the lost1
One day, three people went on a trip. When they arrived in a small town, they found a hotel and wanted to stay. The hotel owner told them that a room would cost 30,sotheydecidedtorenttheroomtogether.Theypaid30, so they decided to rent the room together. They paid10 each and went to the room. The innkeeper later decided he had charged them too much and should have only charged 25,sohesentawaitertogivethemtheremaining25, so he sent a waiter to give them the remaining5. The waiter saw that the three of them were in the same room, so he took 2ofthe2 of the5 and gave them the remaining 3.Eachpersonactuallypaid3. Each person actually paid9 (the original price was 10),and10), and9 times 3 people equals 27.The27. The2 the waiter took plus the innkeeper's original 25equaled25 equaled27. So where did the last $1 go?
The answer is in the brain teaser in the next issue. Stay tuned for the next episode of Brain Teasers.
