Three men go to a hotel and the room is $30.00, they pay and go to their room. The desk clerk says, ?wait, that room was only $25.00. He tells the bellboy to take the men their $5.00 refund. The bellboy says to himself, ?how can I split $5.00 three ways? I?ll give each of them a dollar and keep $2 for myself!? He does this! Now the men have their three dollars which means they paid $27.00 for the room. The bellboy has the two he kept which makes $29.00. What happened to the thirtieth dollar????

and btw, the answer is that the 30th dollar dissappeared. That is the ONLY explanation. The money simply vanished and whoever says otherwise is A STUPID MORON.

The dollar is gone people! :confused:
