~~~~ THE CAFE ~~~~
==================
~~~~ BY ~~~~
============
~~~~ GARY SIMMONS ~~~~
======================
There's a fortune waiting out there if anyone can work this out.
Think about it, it will turn your brain to soup!
Three men go into a cafe and order a meal each. The bill comes to
a total of £25. They each take out a £10 note and give them to
the waitress. She takes the £30 and brings back five, one pound
coins as change. As the three men cannot equally split the £5
change, they each take a £1 coin, that leaves £2 which they give
to the waitress as a tip.
Each man has given £10 and received £1 back so they have ach paid
£9. The waitress has a £2 tip.
3 x £9 = £27
£27 + £2 tip = £29
Where is the other pound?!
Gary.
