3 guys walk into a hotel and request a room.
(Don't ask why 3 guys are getting a room)
The bell boy at the service desk says its $30,
so each guy pays $10. As the bell boy at the
service desk is putting away the 3 $10 bills,
the hotel manager returns, see's this and says
"The room is not $30, its $25, on sale this week.
Go return $5."

As the bell boy is going up the elevator, he's
wondering how he is going to split $5 between
3 boys - so he reasons "since I'm such a good
guy, I'll give each guy $1 (3 x $1 = $3) and I'll
keep $2 myself.

Now, each guy renting the room has paid $9,
and the bell boy keeps $2:
$2 + (3 x $9) = $29

Where did the missing $1 go?
