Three men walk inside a hotel and decide to stay for the night. They pay the price of $30 by splitting it so they each pay $10. They go up their room, but then the manager realizes that the price that night is $25 dollars so he sends $5 dollars up with the bell boy. The bellboy realizes that $5 can't be split by 3 so he pockets $2 and gives the men $1 each. But if you calculate it, the 3 men each payed $9, and 9 times 3 is 27, then add the $2 from the bellboy you got $29. Where did the last $1 go?

They didn't pay 9 each, they paid 10 each. Take the 30 and subtract 5 you get 25. Give them each 1 dollar. Thats 28 and then the pocketed 2 is 30.

I think the question is asked wrongly in tricky way!
cuz 25+1+1+1+2=30
