Question:
Three men eat at a restaurant. The bill comes to £25. They each pay £10. When the waiter brings the £5 change
they each take back £1 each and leave a £2 tip. So each man has paid £9, which totals £27. The waiter has the £2 tip, which makes £29, so where's the other £1 gone?
Answers:
3 men paid £9 each which came to £27.
The waiter's £2 tip came from this £27 and not in addition to to the £27.
Each man paid £10 and took his £1 change back.
In other words, the cost of the meal plus the tip came to £27. This was paid by each man paying £9 (£10 minus the £1 change).
