Three buddies went to a hotel and had some delicious brunch. Each of them gave Rs. 25 and the waiter came back with Rs.5 saying that the bill was only Rs. 70.

Out of Rs. 5 they tipped the waiter with Rs. 2 and the remaining Rs. 3 where shared among themselves.

 

 

They just wanted to make sure nothing went wrong. So they re-calculated.....

 

 

Each gave Rs. 25 and saved Rs. 1. So the cost to each one is Rs. 24..

24*3 gives Rs. 72 + Rs.2 (tip given to the waiter)= Rs. 74

????

 

They could not find where they lost Re. 1.

 

Did you get where they lost it?

It's a good one!!!

the cost of 24 includes tip to the waiter.

therefore 24*3=72 + 3 which they saved.
