27 + 2 from the tip is 29

wheres the missing dollar :o

10 points to the person that solve it first

Answer 1

if everyone paid $10 and got $1 back then everyone paid $9

$9 x 3 = $27

bill is $25 and they left a $2 tip... $25 + $2 = $27.

Answer 2

well you say that everyone took a dollar so its in the waiters pocket...

Answer 3

You state the misleading "fact"

27 + 2 from the tip is 29

The 27 is the 25 for food plus the 2 for the tip.

25 + 2 = 27

and they each have 1 dollar for 3 dollars

27 + 3 = 30

There is no missing dollar.

Answer 4

They each (3) paid $9 = $27 which included the bill ($25) and the tip ($2).

Answer 5

the missing dollar is missing because one of the 3 people didn't leave a tip.

Answer 6

the bill wasnt $30, it was only $25 and overall they are +2 which is tip

Answer 7

They all end up paying 9*3 plus the 3 they get back.  9*3 includes the tip.

Answer 8

Why would customers actually take back money?  What a crazy restaurant!  

Answer 9

"if everyone paid 10 and took 1 back then they paid 9 each"

Wrong. That is the change(the 1), and they didn't pay 9 in the first place, ergo, you contradict yourself, ergo, you restate this problem of yours.

Answer 10

Each gave $10.

3x10 = 30

The waiter gave back $5.

30 - 5 = 25.

They gave up two more dollars as a tip.

25 + 2 = $27. The other three dollars went presumably back to each person, so they paid a total of $27 dollars collectively. No money is missing.

Answer 11

Watch.

3 people put in ten bucks each.

3*10=30

Waiter comes back with 5.

30-5=25.

Each person takes one.

25+3=28.

Two dollars left for tip.

28+2=30.
