each man paid ￡10!. 10x3= 30 (original amount paid) room only costs ￡25 (￡5 change) each man gets ￡1, (￡3 in total) that leaves ￡5 for the boy!. (3+2=5 30-5=25)Www@Enter-QA@Com

Each man paid 10!. The bell boy kept two so the new total is 28!. The boy gives back three so after that deduction the total is 25!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Each man paid 9, and 9x3 = 27!. The bell boy has two, which is part of the 27 that the men paid!. Therefore, it should be subtracted, not added!. Therefore, the correct question is, what happened to the other 5!? It was refunded!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

They paid ￡25 for the room and ￡2 to the bell boy = ￡27
Each had a refund of ￡1 = ￡3
