Try with this
Try with this
Three men checked into a hotel room for which they paid $30.
The next day, the manager realized that the men had been overcharged
She gave the bellhop $5 to return to the three men
On the way to their room the bellhop decided to keep $2 for himself
and give each of the three men one dollar
The three men had now paid $9 each, or a total of $27
This plus the $2 the bellhop kept makes a total of $29
What happened to the other dollar?

I'm not sure!
but, the three men paid the manager 30 $and then the manger took 5 dollars from the 30 dollars, therefore,the manager had 25 dollars left!
then the bellhop decided to take 2 $ for himselfand paid each man only one dollar.
the manager now has 25 dollars+2 dollars +3 dollars=30 dollars
the 27 dollars is actually the 25 dollars which remained with the manager plus the 2 dollars that were taken by th bellhop,and which the three men thought that they were part of their charges.
so if we added the 3 returned dollars to the 27 dollars it will give us 30 dollars!!!
so actually there is no missing dollar!!!
that's what i think!!!!

You have just repeated the first part of the story
You may know the answer … so you have to say it clearly

each person paid 9 dollars=27 dollars
they paid 25 to the manager and 2 dollars to the bellhop, and the bellhop returned 3 dollars to the bellhop
----------
you said that:the three men paid 9 $ and thats a total of 27 plus the 2 dollars the bellhop kept and that makes it 29 $
---------
that's not right, the three men paid 27 dollars and thats 25 to the manager and two to the bellhop!!! so what u have mentioned in the riddle is actually wrong!!
because they only paid 27 dollars and not 29 dollars
and if we added the three returned dollars to the 27 dollars it will give us 30 and not 29!!!
hope its clear now!!!!!

اخر كلام ينفع هذا
Nothing happened to the dollar. All the money is still there. Yes, they each ended up paying $9 each for a total of $27. Plus the $3 they got back is a total of $30—it’s all there. They were supposed to pay $25 but they paid $27, which makes sense because the bellhop kept $2.
