Misunderstanding of information

[Twocando]

Does the following happen with information about roulette?

Three guys went to the local pub, had something to drink. Each of them gave the waitress $10 each. The waitress went to the cashier and he tough that these guys are nice and gave the waitress 5$ change to give back to the 3 guys. On her way back to the 3, the waitress tough 5$ change. she's just going to give each a 1$ change and keep 2$ for herself.

The guys took each 1$. Now here is the problem Each of the 3 paid 9$ ( 10$ - 1$ change) 3 x 9$ = 27$ plus the 2$ that the waitress took 27$ +  2$ = 29$  WHAT happened to the other 1$?

Can money disappear?   or is there something wrong with the info?

Why did they bury the Chinaman on the side of the hill?

Maybe that's where the cemetery is.

The mistake is in the way it is worded.

We do not add $2 to the $27 to get $29 which does not make sense, we take the $2 away from $27 to = $25

3x$9=$27 is all the guys paid
$27-$2=$25

Good Lohnro

You are right. The point is - what is said by one and what is understand by another might be different and each one will make his own conclusion about the matter.

Even if something of great value is given away it holds no more value because it was for free. This will be treated as a freebie and maybe worth nothing to the holder of it.

Some of the best ideas, that took a lot of time and effort to compile gets crush by others.
