3 MEN GO INTO A MOTEL. 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 GUYS' 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 DOLLAR?

THE RIGHT ANSWER SHOULD BE THE 3 MEN EACH PAID $9 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF $27 plus THE $3 THREE MEN GOT BACK (EACH MAN A $1)=$30

THE $2 WHICH BELLBOY KEPT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE $27 WHICH 3 MEN HAVE PAID FOR THE ROOM.

IF THE ANSWER IS RIGHT, MAY I GET SOME FLOWER FROM LZ?

该减两块，为啥要加两块在27块上呢？
