Bonus points for this one!



Three guys agree to split the cost of a room for the night.
They ask at the desk what it costs and the manager says $30 so, each of the three guys pays $10.

Later, the owner says that they overpaid and should have been charged only $25.
He gives $5 to the manager and tells him to give it to the three guys sharing the room.
But, the manager pockets $2 and gives each of the three guys $1 which means that each guy has now paid $9.

So, $9 X 3 = $27 plus $2 the manager pocketed = $29. Where's the other dollar?
