<p>We need a chill thread. I’ll start with a riddle…
Three people checked into a motel and paid the person at the front desk $30 for a room (they split it 3 ways, and incase you can’t do the math, thats $10 a person). When the hotel manager returned, he noticed that the clerk had accidentally charged $30 instead of $25 for the room. The manager told the clerk to return $5 to the people. Not knowing how to divide $5 evenly, he decided to keep $2 and to give them only $3. The customers were very happy because they paid only $27 for the room ($9 each). However, if they paid $27 and the clerk kept $2, that adds up to $29. What happened to the other Dollar? <em>I STILL DONT NO THE AWNSER</em></p>

<p>Oh yea, and what kind of music do you guys listen to?</p>

<p>I like coldplay. :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue: :p</p>

<p>Ummm. I like mostly rap… But then I spent most of my life in new york, pretty close to 50 cent so…
I really like 2Pac though.</p>

<p>I like: electronic music in general, metal, rock, emo ( yes emo…but I’m definitely not one of those emo kids), blues, jazz…almost anything except reggae and reggaeton…yeah…ScAr please do post the answer when you figure it out, I suck at riddles.</p>

<p>Actually, I did find the awnser, but I think I’ll wait till some other people take a look at it.</p>

<p>They pay 9 dollars each for the room. This totals to $27. Of this, $25 goes to the hotel and the clerk keeps $2.</p>

7

<p>Okay, so there’s $27… where’s the other $3 then?</p>

8

<p>OK wait… I got it ( got some help form my brother)</p>

<p>The people actually paid 25 bucks for the room, and if you add to that the 2 bucks the clerk kept that does give 27. If you multiply 9 times 3 you’re already including the $2 there, you shouldn’t add them again.</p>

<p>Then its only $29</p>

<p>Well technically the $3 isn’t in this problem anymore since I have them paying 9 dollars each for the room. But whatever. They pay 10 dollars each for the room. So that’s $30. Of this, $25 goes to the hotel, the clerk keeps $2, and the remaining $3 is split evenly among them.</p>

<p>damn you people who posted before I did!!! Now I won’t be the one who solved the riddle…damn it lol…</p>

<p>25 for the room+2 the clerk kept+3 dollars the people got back=30</p>

<p>

Good Job…</p>

13

<p>$25 to $30 a room??
They need to find a better place. And isn’t it a little crowded with 3 guys in there?</p>

<p>30-5=25</p>

<p>25+3= 28</p>

<p>28+2=30</p>
