Three people get off a bus and are planning on staying at a hotel. One night at the hotel is 30 bucks, so these three people dish out 10 bucks each to pay for the hotel.
After the hotel manager takes the 30 bucks into the back room, he realizes that there was a 5 dollar discount on the room. Hence, he gives the 5 dollars to the bus boy and tells the boy to give the three people their money back. This shady bus boy stashes 2 dollars away in his pocket and then gives 1 dollar to each of the people. The 3 people unware of the bus boy's actions, still believes they've got a good deal by paying only 9 dollars each and 27 in total.
Here's the question, if they paid 27 dollars total and adding the 2 dollars the bus boy took away, only makes 29 dollars. What happened to the 1 dollar missing?
