3 boys go to the restaurant. Their bill was 75 rs..
So they contributed 25 each. Manager then gives 5 rs back
to the waiter and then waiter gave 3 rs back to them and
put 2 rs into his pocket..
So their actual contribution is 24 because they got 1-1 rs
back. so 24*3=72 and 2 rs into the waiter's pocket. so
74+2=74
where is 1 rs?

Answer / avinash markam
very easy .,,,,,they shear 25 rupee each then
25 X 3 =75
5 rupee discount
& so (a) 3 rupee return them
& (b) 2 rupees in waiters pocket
then 70/3 (70 divided in 3 parts)=23.33
1st + 2nd + 3rd + 3rupee return+ 2rupee waiter
then 23.33+23.33+23.33+ 3(from'a,)+ 2(from'b,)=74.99
so i.e 75 rupee

Answer / abhijeet
Logical answer:
1. Manager (M) wanted Rs. 70 /-
2. Boys (B) are in a profit of Rs. 3/-
(i.e. they had to shell out only Rs. 72/-)
3. Waiter (W) is at a profit of Rs. 2/-
Total = M (70) + B (3) + W (2) = Rs. 75/-

Answer / suraj joshi
i think this is mathematical problem and this is the way to solve it.
A) 25₹ B) 25₹
C) 25₹
and they submitted it total = 75₹
but the actual cost is=70₹
so the manager return 5₹ to bell boy.
bell boy cheat and keep 2₹ own willingness.
now the question why we subtracting in 25₹?we should divide 70/3 = 23.33₹
now each have consumption is 23.33₹.
A)23.33₹ B)23.33₹
C)23.33₹
total = 70₹ and refunded is 3₹ to all partners and bell boy keep 2₹.
then solve it 70₹+3₹(refunded money)+2₹(bell boy keep)=75₹
NOTE- i think we are doing error on 25-1=24. the concept is not pure because three boy has purchase a room and gave 75₹ OK but when the question is on returning 3₹ then
we are subtracting it form 25₹ instead of 23.33₹ .

Answer / satheesh
70 (actual bill) + 2 (waiter took) + 3 (they have got back)= 75.
They just trying to confuse by adding 2 with 72.
72+2=74 and where is 1? - this question really meaningless.
if that so, go by the same way.
72 (bill) + 2 (tips) + 3 (they have got back) = 77.
thus, they have paid 24 each and sums 72 which includes 70 for the bill and 2 for waiter. that's all. this is for calculation of 72.
if you need of 75, go to first.
finally they just begin the calculation from end.

Ali Baba had four sons, to whom he bequeathed his 39 camels, with the proviso that the legacy be divided in the following way : The oldest son was to receive one half the property, the next a quarter, the third an eighth and the youngest one tenth. The four brothers were at a loss as how to divide the inheritance among themselves without cutting up a camel, until a stranger appeared upon the scene. Dismounting from his camel, he asked if he might help, for he knew just what to do. The brothers gratefully accepted his offer. Adding his own camel to Ali Baba's 39, he divided the 40 as per the will. The oldest son received 20, the next 10, the third 5 and the youngest 4. One camel remained : this was his, which he mounted and rode away. Scratching their heads in amazement, they started calculating. The oldest thought : is not 20 greater than the half of 39? Someone must have received less than his proper share ! But each brother discovered that he had received more than his due. How is it possible?
The son of a rich bullion merchant left home on the death of his father. All he had with him was a gold chain that consisted of 138 links. He rented a place in the city center with a shop at the lower level and an apartment at the upper level. He was required to pay every week one link of the gold chain as rent for the place. The landlady told him that she wanted one link of the gold chain at the end of one week, two gold links at the end of two weeks, three gold links at the end of three weeks and so on. The son realized that he had to cut the links of the gold chain to pay the weekly rent. If the son wished to rent the place for 138 weeks, what would be the minimum number of links he would need to cut?
