Three people chip in $10 dollar each to purchase a gift, the gift cost $25 dollar, the store clerk stole $2 dollar, and only give them $1 each in change.
3*$10=$30-$25(gift)-$2(store clerk stole it)-$1*3(refund)=0
that mean three people take out $9 dollar each (10-1)
here is the question
$9*3=27+2(stole by store clerk)=29
but t hey take out $10 dollar each so total of $30
30 doesn't equal to 29
where did the missing dollar go
