Three tourists sought lodging in a small American hotel. The Receptionist
Offered them a three-room suite for $300. The three men went upstairs
With the Hotel Attendant to have a look at the suite. Everything seemed fine, and
Each tourist gave $100 to the Hotel Attendant. When the Receptionist received the
$300 from the Hotel Attendant, he discovered that he had made a mistake: the
Price of the suite was only $250. Therefore, he sent the Hotel Attendant back
With five $10 bills. On his way upstairs, the Hotel Attendant realized it would
Be a problem to distribute the five $10 bills among three people. So he
Slipped two of the $10 bills into his own pocket, and gave back $10 to
Each of the three men. Thus, they had each paid $90, which adds up
to $270. Twenty dollars ended up in the Hotel Attendant’s pocket. Altogether,
That makes $270 + $20 = $290, even though the three guests had originally
Paid $300.
What happened to the missing ten dollars?

Hello dear I got it
Each paid 100 bucks even though 250 is the room rent but 30 bucks additionally given so the total is 280 bucks and the remaining 20 is swallowed by that cunning attender
And the final answer is that they paid 270 bucks overall and the 20 is lost and remaining given 30 add up it to 300

It should be any of the two ways
$270 (which they gave) + $30 (which they have) = $300(original money)
OR if you think other way
$250(with hotel) + $20(with waiter) + $30(with tourists) = $300(original money)
