A Discount Rate
Bunny, Flower and Duka decided to have a stay at Dynasty Hotel. The hotel rate was S$30 per night. Each of them came out S$10 and paid at the counter upon check in. Later the hotel staff realised that there was an error in the system. The hotel rate for the night is S$25. He gave S$5 to the A-bo, the bell boy. He told him A-bo to return the money to the three guests.
In the lift, A-bo stared at S$5 and wondered wondered how should he divide the reminding change to these people. As he pressed the door bell, an idea struck him. He returned $3 to them, each of them got back $1 each. A-bo kept the $2 for himself.
I need your help to with this problem sum.. If each person paid S$9 for the room, total sum is S$27. If add up A-bo's S$2, that arrive S$29, so where does the one dollar go to?
