22. Three
men have $10 each. Together they decide to purchase a radio for
$30. They leave the store and the clerk realizes the radio was on
sale for $25. The clerk decides to refund the $5--grabs five one-dollar
bills and chases after the three guys down the street. The clerk
then realizes he can't give $5 to three guys evenly, so he pockets $2
and gives each of them a $1 refund.
Now,
if the three guys each got a dollar back, that means they paid a total
of $9 each, which equals $27 total for the radio. If they paid $27
dollars and the clerk only has $2 in his pocket, then they only paid $29
for the radio ($27 + 2 = 29). What happened to the extra dollar?
