Three people check into a hotel. They pay £30 to the manager and go to their room. The manager suddenly remembers that the room rate is £25 and gives £5 to the bellboy to return to the people. On the way to the room the bellboy reasons that £5 would be difficult to share among three people so he pockets £2 and gives £1 to each person. Now each person paid £10 and got back £1. So they paid £9 each, totalling £27. The bellboy has £2, totalling £29. Where is the missing £1?

they paid £30, and they each received back £1, so they now have only paid £27. Of this £27, £25 went to the manager for the room and £2 went to the bellboy.

Actualy uve framed the Answer wrong ... U see each person Paid £9 each so that makes 3x9= £27 , the waiter flicked £2...So u added it to make £29!! but in reality .. u Subtract it !! So u get 27-2= £25 Which is safely with the Manager!!!
