MIRZA1414779019 Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 3 MEN GO INTO A MOTEL. THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS $30, SO EACH MAN PAID $10 AND WENT TO THE ROOM. A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALIZED THE ROOM WAS ONLY $25, SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' ROOM WITH $5. ON THE WAY, THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT $5 EVENLY BETWEEN 3 MEN, SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A $1 AND KEPT THE OTHER $2 FOR HIMSELF. THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID $9 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF $27, ADD THE $2 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = $29. WHERE IS THE OTHER DOLLAR?

Guest Electric Eel Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 Yeah, the whole time i was waiting for the bellboy to walk in on the 3 guys sharing a room doing something they shouldnt be doing, who cares what happened with their money! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest coach Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 Oh ha ha! I missed the whole point of the brain teaser! I thought it was a math problem, when all along it was "guess the bungholebangers."Wait a sec, how did you know about these three guys in the motel room, Mirza?

Guest JMT Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 like Seb said, they overpaid $2 and didn't realize it. apparently, this wasn't a holiday inn express. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIRZA1414779019 Posted June 13 Author Report Share Posted June 13 You don't add the two dollars the bell boy kept to the 27 dollars, you subtract it. The 3 men over paid to price not under paid it. It the Bellboy had given the money back to the men then they would have paid only $25 for the room. The Men paid $27 total....$25 to the hotel and $2 to the bell boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
