This one will mess with your mind...
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?
Can you find it ?

The extra dollar is in the change that the bell boy couldnt figure out. =)
The answer :
Actually 3 men paid a total of $27.
$25 is for the room and the other $2 is on the bell boy pocket. :-)
The man behind the desk has the missing dollar. each guest should have paid 8.33 but instead paid nine dollars. the guests overpaid, so thats why they are missing a dollar.
