three men go into a motel and hand the clerk $30
$10 each from the three men.
In the morning the clerk realized that she over charged the men,the room was only $25 for the night.
The clerk gave the (bell-boy) $5 in 1 dollar bills and sent him to give it to the men,
On the way to the room the (bell-boy) was not sure how to split $5 three ways,so he put $2 in his pocket then gave the three men each a $1 dollar bill.
So the men each got back $1 in reality the men only paid $9 each for the room,RIGHT?
OK, do the math ..........9 x 3 = 27 + the $2 the (bell-boys got) = $29
Where's the $1
