3 men go into a Hotel.
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 guy's 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.
Where is the other $? |

obvious fallacy . you shouldn't add 2 to 27 , you must subtract 2 from 27 to get 25 $ ( the money in the hotel ) |

3 people x 10 = 30 , but
3 people x 9 = 27 only |
