Re: Goofy Math Riddle
I remember this riddle from when I was a kid [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
It's all in the problem statement actually. The deceiving part is that 9x3=27, and 27+2=29.
Of course, this is true, but it's far from an accurate picture of how the $5 is disbursed. It's really 9x3=27, and 27-2=25. So the entire $5 that the manager gives back is accounted for.
