Three salesmen stop at a motel and find only one vacancy.

They agree to share the one room and each pays $10 ($30)

Later, finding that he has charged them too much the desk clerk sends them a $5 refund.

The bellboy, seeing a problem dividing the $5 by 3 takes $2 for himself and gives the men $1 each.

The men who chipped in $10 each now have a $1 refund making their investment $9 each.

$9 X 3 = $27 + $2 kept by the Bellboy = $29

Where is the other dollar?

No missing dollar.

Out of the $30, $25 went to the clerk, $2 went to the bell boy, and $1 each went to each of the 3 men.

Which equals $30
