Pen get the 25 rs. each of them 8.33 rs. Now the distribute 5rs, in one, one rs each. To cont: 9.33rs. servant were the 2rs. The Total confirm of 30rs.

It doesn't exist. It cost you 9 each, 9x3=27, 2 taken by servant is 27-2=$25. He overcharged you 5, 30-5=25.

ummmmmmm

The way you asked this question is correct, but practically its a wrong way of asking this question. You paid Rs 30, shopkeeper returned Rs 5, so you paid only Rs 25. Now Rs3 out of Rs 5 is with you three and the rest Rs2 with the servent.

'Rs' stands for Rupees, the currency used in India, Pakistan, Nepal, sri Lanka

I got it!
Once the servant took the 5 back to you, there were 25, so you didnt each contribute 9-9-9, you contributed 8-8-9 because the servent kept the other 2...
i cant explain very well beacause i have no idea what "a pen of rs. 30" is supposed to mean, or what a "rs."is....

total money u spent plus the total u saved will be the total,,

30 = total spent + total saved,,,,,
30 = 27 + 3 ...

rs 2 u gave to servant is spent and it includes in that 27,,,
and re 1 u each took is saved money,, i,e 3,,
thus,, 27 + 3 = 30..

its a trick riddle and an old one it doesnt really go missing you just worded it so it sounded like it did.

Well, there is no missing rupee. The total payment is 27, not 30. You gave 30 and got a change of 5, so you have paid 25 all in all. Then you gave 2 to the servant which makes your payment 27.

The problem is just a matter or perspective.

If you look at the problem from one point, the men spent 10 each. Then were returned 1 each, and tipped a boy 2. 10 times 3 is 30. When you subtract the 3 returned to the men from thirty, you get 27. Then, when you subtract the 2 that was tipped to the boy, you get 25. The men only spent 25.

On the other hand, if you look at it as multiplication, as you posed the question, you will see a missing dollar. When you do it the way you proposed the question, you start at 0 and count up. You actually have to count 0 then. Counting from 0 to 29, you actually count 30 numbers.

There is no missing anything... except the pen. I can't find it. Anywhere around here.

You added wrong. 9+9+9+3, the rupees in total is 30. Idiot.

You contirbuted 30 rs. 5 rs were refunded, of that 5, 2 were given as a tip. You spent 28 rs.

First answerer has correctly shown give him 10 Points!

u spent Rs.27 /- and saved Rs.3/-. thats it total Rs.30/- this was a very old question dude.....i know this que some 15 years back

its just depends on the way of thinking
u three gave 30 rs and then u took back 3 rs so the total money u gave is 27rs among which 25 rs for pen and 2 rs for servant.

Ha. You arent the only one who has heard this one. I tell this quite often.
Are you riddling everyone, or do you actually not know? =)
