Three tuners check in to the Holiday Inn for the convention and are told that the room is $30. Each tuner gives the clerk $10 and they go up to their room. Soon the clerk realizes that the room is really $25 and has the bell hop take $5 back to the tuners. On his way up to the room, he figures that since the tuners won't be able to split the $5 evenly, he will keep $2 and give the tuners back $3, which he does. So, the tuners each get back $1, meaning that they each paid $9 for the room. $9 times 3 tuners is $27, add the $2 that the bell hop kept, comes to $29. Where is the other $1 ?? Dave Bunch
