Back to school
Where is the other R1?
3 men go into a motel.
The man behind the desk said the room is R30, so each man paid R10 and went to the room.
A while later the man behind the desk realized the room was only R25, so he sent the bellboy to the 3 guy's room with R5.
On the way the bellboy couldn't figure out how to split R5 evenly between 3 men, so he gave each man a R1 and kept the other R2 for himself.
This meant that the 3 men each paid R9 for the room, which is a total of R27, add the R2 that the bellboy kept = R29.
Where is the other Rand?

Careful;
This proves that we cannot trust mathematics in all that we are doing.

Yes! if you do the math then it doesn't look right - same as the following example:
If you count all of your fingers from right 1,2,3,4,5 and continue to the left ,6,7,8,9,10 its correct
but if you count backwards now, left 10,9,8,7,6 + your 5 fingers on the right hand you get 11 ???????
That where you will find the extra R1.
Cheers guys and have a safe w/e
Guys
If i was a police i will arrest bellboy because he took R1 without permision.
Oh! please give the poor bellboy jast a break! its clear that the boy couldnt count, I would....
