Riddle: Three sailors on shore leave want to share a room and check into a hotel!


Question: Riddle: Three sailors on shore leave want to share a room and check into a hotel !. !. !.!?
The hotel clerk charges them $10 each for the room, so they hand over $30!. The clerk, feeling he overcharged them, tells the bellboy to give them a $5!.00 refund!. The bellboy takes the $5!.00 up to their room, but on the way he thinks to himself that $5!.00 is tough to divide between 3 people, so, he pockets $2!.00 and refunds only $3!.00!.

So, the sailors only paid $9!.00 each for the room because they each got one dollar refund!.

3 x $9!.00 = $27!.00!. The bellboy kept $2!.00

$2!.00 + $27!.00 = $29!.00!. What happend to the extra dollar!?Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
Why does it have to be sailors that share a room!?
What are you trying to say here!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

sailors paid $9!.00 each for the room!. total 3x9!.00=$27!.00
the bellboy kept $2!.00!.
so 27!.00 - 2!.00=$25!.00 paid for the room!.
( or 30!.00 - 5!.00=$25!.00)
the equation" $2!.00 + $27!.00 = $29!.00 " is incorrect: because $2!.00 is already included in $27!.00!. if we sum $2!.00 and $27!.00 , then $2!.00 would be included in the sum twice!. " $29!.00 " is meaningless!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

You forgot to calculate the evenings full events!.
After I got there the sailors each paid, $500!.00
I gave 5% to the clerk, 5%, to the bellboy!.
We ordered $ 85 worth of food each, imported water costs $20 each!.
The bellboy felt angry so I asked him to come in and he then paid a 'cheap at $400' discount!.

Where the feck were you!! you promised breakfast if I made more than $1000!.00!.
Pimps they are all the same!!Www@Enter-QA@Com

Net amount each sailor gave = $ (10 - 1) = $ 9!.
3 sailors paid together = $ (9 x 3) = $ 27!.
Room rent = $ 25!.
Waiter kept for himself = $ 2!.

The equation should be:
Amount given by sailors = Room rent + Money taken by bellboy!.
27 = 25 + 2Www@Enter-QA@Com

its more like!.!.!.

(10-1)x3= 30-3=27 =money with clerk +money refunded

money withclerk = 25
money with bellboy = 2
money refunded = 3
(adding)
-------------------------------------
totally = 30Www@Enter-QA@Com

The clerk has $25!. The bellboy has $2 and they have $3!.
That makes $30!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
