is it my turn?

3 mates buy a 2nd hand TV between them, it costs ?30 so they all pay ?10 each. The shop owner says the tv has been on sale for ages and he's glad to see it go so he knocks ?5 off the price. the 3 mates decide to take ?1 each and put ?2 in the charity box on the till. so they've all paid ?10 then get ?1 back. thats ?9 each, ?27 between them and ?2 in the charity box, wheres the extra ?1 gone??

Marc
22-09-05, 09:45 PM
the trick is in the wording they

so they've all paid ?10 then get ?1 back. thats ?9 each, ?27 between them and ?2 in the charity box, wheres the extra ?1 gone??



so the answer is the 1 is change!

took a while but thought the trick was in the wording (but i still may be wrong :D )

got another 1

there is a man in a box with to holes either side of him, and his knuckles are bleeding why?

questions may be asked (wont be answered wquickly cause hardly on the net anymore lol) and this 1 took me fucking ages to get right so unless youve heard it before i doubt you will get it right lol

Got an answer for Benji's one.

Effectivley they got a TV for ?25. If they all pay ?9 that makes ?27. Then then put the ?2 extra in the charity box.

The way your lead to work it out makes you add and subtract the wrong numbers that always leaves you ?1 out.

What you forget is that the TV has only cost them 25 but 9*3 is 27. I hope i've explained it well enough.
