Eldrick has that sort of mind ................lateral thinking I think it's called:))

thanks thats simple when you look at it in a different way

Oh heck..................I got my calculator out and still can't understand it!! LOL

Its the way its related - the best way to explain it is.... the confusion is where everyone thinks that 3/30=10 (which is correct!) but once the man behind the desk realized it was £25 you DO NOT divide 30 by 3...its actualy is 3/25 which is 8.33... well...

8.33 x 3 = 25
25+3 (1 pound times 3 men) =28
28+2(that the bellboy kept) = 30!!!

3 MEN GO INTO A HOTEL. THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS £30.00 SO

EACH MAN PAID £10.00 AND WENT TO THE ROOM.

A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALIZED THE ROOM WAS ONLY £25.00

SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' ROOM WITH £5.00

ON THE WAY THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT £5.00 EVENLY

BETWEEN 3 MEN, SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A £1.00 AND KEPT THE OTHER £2.00 FOR

HIMSELF.

THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID £9.00 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL

OF £27.00, ADD THE £2.00 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = £29.00

WHERE IS THE OTHER POUND?
