RE: Mind F*ck/Stumped

Here's another one that's extremely similar. My dad used to tell it to us. Easy enough to find it/answer on google lol.

Three men each paid $10 to share a $30 hotel room. Later, the manager felt bad about overcharging them for a $25 dollar room, so he gave the bellboy 5 one-dollar bills to return to them. The bellboy returned one dollar to each of the men, but kept two for himself. So the men paid $27 for the room, plus $2 to the bellboy for a total of $29. Where did the extra dollar go?

‎97/2= 48.5, Each of the parents paid 48.5, you gave 1$ to each so they both got paid back 49.5, plus your dollar = 100$.
