for some reason,when we were walking home drunk on saturday night (well,stumbling around to be precise) my mate Karl asked me this question (don\'t know why) and I couldn\'t figure it out so he emailed it to meand I still can\'t figure it out...can you?
3 men go to a hotel and ask for one room for the night,the man behind the counter says that will be £30,each of the men pay £10 each.
when the men have gone to their room the man behind the counter relises that he has overcharged them as the room cost £25.so in the till there was five,one pound coins,but how was he going to share it between 3 men.
so he gave the five one pound coins to the door man and asked him to sort it out when he saw the men,the doorman thought how am i going to share this out between 3 men,so the doorman kept £2 and gave the men £1 back each.
the 3 men in the end payed £9 each for the room which comes to £27
the doorman took £2 which the total is now £29
so where is the other £1?
strange.
