Where is the remaining 1 rupee?????????
Posted 10-06-2009Reply
Three friends went to a hotel. The bill was Rs 75/-
Each one contributed Rs.25/-. The waiter took the bill to the Cashier.
The cashier was happy & decided to give them a discount of Rs.5/- & asked the waiter to return them Rs.5/-.
Now the waiter was confused. How to distribute Rs 5 among 3 persons? He kept Rs 2 in his pocket & Gave one rupee to each one of the 3 persons. So initially each one had contributed Rs.25. Now as they are given 1 rupee back, their contribution reduces to Rs 24.
They all contributed Rs 24 “ That is 24—3=72 & 2 rupees are in the waiters pocket.
The total becomes 74. But they Had paid Rs 75.
Where is the remaining 1 rupee?????????

The cashier gave them a discount of Rs.5/- & asked the waiter to return them Rs.5/- ,but waiter find it tough to distribute Rs. 5/- among 3 persons He kept Rs 2 in his pocket & Gave one rupee to each one of the 3 persons than it become clear that 3 friends spent Rs. 72/-( Rs-70 for Cashier & Rs-2 Waiter) and remaining Rs.-3/- come to payable persons.
Total = Expenses+ Saving
(Rs-72/- + Rs-3/-)
Rs-75/-
