Question

three friends rent a room for rs.30 by paying rs.10 each. the owner decides to give them a discount rs.5 and gives it to the broker. the broker who a cunning man takes rs.2. and returns one rupee to each of them. so the sum paid by each person would be rs.9 which adds upto rs.27 and the broker took rs.2 ,so the total is rs.29 where did that re.1 go?

Answer 1

The original question says broker returns 1 rupees each

So answer is

Owner has 25

Broker has 2

And boys have 3 (1 each)

Total 30 nothing is missing

Answer 2

nothing has gone anywhere

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Paid = Rs 30

Owner Returned Rs  5

Net Paid = 30 - 5 = Rs 25

Each Person get rs 1 back

Hence paid = Rs 9 each

Total Paid by 3 = 3 * 9 = 27 Rs

Actually net paid = Rs 25

27 - 25 = Rs 2  is the differnce what broker had

there is no meaning of adding 27 & 2 and compare with 30

its actually

27 - 2 = 30 - 5

=> 25 = 25

so nothing has gone anywhere
