Rep Power: 190 | Where is 1 Rupee??? 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 24x3=72 & 2 rupees are in the waiters pocket. The total becomes 74. But they had paid Rs 75. Where is the remaining 1 rupee??? | |

SHOPKEEPER RETURNS 5 RUPEES TO WAITER BUT HE STILL HAVE 70 RUPEES AND WHEN WE DIVIDE 70 BY 3 = Rs 23.333 EACH (APPROX) Rs 23.333 + Rs 1 = Rs 24.333 EACH THEREFORE Rs 24.333 + Rs 24.333 + Rs 24.333 + Rs 2(WHICH WAITER KEPT) = Rs75(APPROX) AND I KNOW THIS ANSWER IS RIGHT BUT THE QUESTION IS WRONG | |
