: Three guys go to a restaurant for a meal. The total bill comes to $25. Rather than work out who spent what, they each give the waiter $10 and ask for a dollar back each, leaving a tip of $2 (mean sods!).
Now, each guy has spent $9, 3 x $9 = $27. The poor waiter has a $2 tip. $2 + $ 27 = $29. They actually gave $30, so what has happened to the missing dollar?
