Where did the money go?
There were three friends having dinner together, when the waiter brought their bill, which was $30. Each paid $10.
After collecting the money the waiter realized that t he bill should have been $26 insted, dua to a special discount.
Unsure on how to divide $4 equally among three people, he put $1 in his pocket ang gave each person $1. This means that each person paid $9 for their dinner.
It happens that 9 x 3 + 1 = 28. What happened to the other $2?
