  • LOL yeah but you get the point. I mean actually the riddle is flawed because they wouldn't pay $9 each for $5 which was split incorrectly anyway... They would each have to pay $9 point something never ending for $5 which is impossible to do practically anyway but its the true sum. Does anyone get my drift?

  • Actually, the riddle isn't flawed, it's intentionally misleading. There are two possible equations:

    1) Who Paid What?

    (9x3)-2=25

    9 paid by each guy and 2 stolen by the employee.

    2) Where the $ Ends Up

    25+(1x3)+2=30

    25 with the hotel, 1 with each guy, and 2 with the employee.

    So the riddle gets you started adding Eq. 1),"who paid what", (9x3...), but then forces you into Eq. 2), "where the $ ends up", (...+2=30), which will never add up, because they aren't the same equation.

  • Lolz yes but they don't pay $9 each for $5 split wrong. So if the riddle says that they therefore pay $9 each, that's a lie so to me its flawed. Its like saying right 1+1=5 so if you take 1+1 away from 7 why do you get 5?

  • They did pay $9 each. They gave $10 and got $1 back. 10-1=9

  • It claims that due to an INCORRECT DIVISION that they pay $9 each... if the $5 was split correctly which is impossible with money then they would not pay $9 each they would pay $9 POINT something. that something would add up to the missing pound. It expects you to believe a claim based on an incorrect division. ? lolz

  • If the $5 was split correctly, they wouldn't have each paid 9 "POINT" something. They would have paid $8 "POINT" something, because they got $1 "POINT" something back, then you'd be missing more than a dollar. I already explained this perfectly. If you really want to get it, go read it again.

  • @johnmarkdyer yes I got the $9 POINT something wrong lolz but well done you did explain it beaut, bravo... but still the statement that they pay $9 each is incorrect when you incorrectly divide $5 each on the basis of, its impossible with money. I do agree though that they shouldn't bother with trying to get up to $30 lolz

  • Haha. Internet is Serious business.

  • haha best response ever

    love how you sound sleepy and like you completely don't care.
