The classic.

3 guys on a journey decide to spend the rest of the night in a hotel nearby. For the night stay, the hotel manager charges them 300.Thethreeguyspay300. The three guys pay 100 each. Later on, the hotel manager realizes he made a mistake and that the bill totalled to 250.Heaskedaworkertogivethe250. He asked a worker to give the 50 back. The greedy worker pocketed 20andgaveeachofthethreeguys20 and gave each of the three guys 10.

Since the guys originally paid 100eachandnowget100 each and now get 10 back, they paid 270intotal.Theworkerhad270 in total. The worker had 20. Where is the remaining $10?
