You saw a shirt for 97$
You didnt have the cash. So you borrowed $50 dollars from your mom. And $50 dollars from your dad.
$50 + $50 = $100
You bought the shirt and had $3 dollars change.
You gave you Dad $1 dollar, your Mom $1 dollar, and you kept $1 dollar for yourself.
You now owe $49 to your mom. And $49 to your dad.
$49 + $49 + your $1 dollar = $99 dollars.
Where is the missing $1? -
Agh I've heard this one so many times.
-
there is no missing dollar, simple, the equation doesn't have to add to 100 (thats what I think)
-
You have it.
shirt = 97
50 from mom, 50 from dad = 100
100-97= 3
ignoring the "+ your 1 dollar" part, if you returned 2 bucks (1 to each parent), then the total cash you took from them is 49+49=98
you got the shirt for 97 so you got a dollar back :P
I may have confused myself with this. -
no ting. your explanation made more sense than mine did. But you're right. All of you are.
-
You are just confusing yourself:
You got 100$ from your parents,you buy the shirt for 97$ so you get 3$ change.
You give each of your parents 1$ and there will be 1$ left for yourself so:
"1 plus 1 plus 1 plus 97 = 100"
Thats it dun confuse yourself ;) -
I think I've heard something like this before
-
xXLionessHeartXx NewbieXD Viktor. Just what I was thinking.
