Question: Friday quiz question!?
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!.

Answers:
Ah, this old one!. It's all in how you're trying to allocate the money!.
The ￡2 the bellboy kept should be subtracted from the ￡27, not added, giving the ￡25 the hotel made for the room, not the ￡30 the men originally paid!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
