Three men go into a hotel. They rent 3 rooms. The manager charges them $30. They go to their rooms. Later the manager realizes that he had charged them too much. He should have only charged $25. So he calls the bellhop over and gives him $5, and tells him to give it back to the men. Well, not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, he didn't know how to divide $5. So he got it changed into 1 dollar bills. He gave each man back a dollar and kept $2 for himself.

Each man had now paid $9 for his room. (3 x 9) = 27. The bellhop kept 2, Where'd the other dollar go?
