Title: G'd Up math riddle.
Post by: West C. Connected on January 09, 2004, 08:00:49 AM
My teacher gave me it, I have no idea what the answer is.


Okay, so three homies go party up in da club, and get drunker and higher than a motherfucka, right? Well they took tha bouncin' lowrider to Long Beach, and they from tha C-P-T Compton and they can't drive so they be stayin' at tha hotel, not tha motel, or the holiday inn. It costs 30 bucks for one room with three beds. Keepin' it real, each gangsta be payin' 10 bucks. Tha next mornin' the hotel owner finds out the actual price of tha room was 25 bucks (includin' dem cheap ass hoes). The hotel owner thinks "HELL NAW I ain't givin' it all back. They would be thinkin' for ages who would get what." So he goes to the gangstas from Compton and says "Yo motherfucka! Here's 3 bucks, y'all was payin' too much last night." while keepin' tha other 2 bucks. "Thanks for keepin' it real G." the other one says. So each gangsta gets $1 back. So basicly each G paid 9 bucks right? 9+9+9= $27. The hotel rip-off owner has $2. So what happened to the other $1?

 ???



P.S. "SuM BiTCh AzZ NuKkA ToOK Tha KaSH 'N sHOT dEm BiTCH BlOoDZ" is not a correct answer.

silly silly...

read it closely... the $27 + 2  figure is a red herring ;)

because the 27 they paid already includes the stolen "2" .. the 3 left behind is what was given back, 27 is what they've paid he keeps 2 fmo the 27 leaving 25 to cover the real room cost

G'z paid $30. The price was really $25.
Hotel owner gave $3 back 2 the g'z.
25 + 3 = 28
Hotel owner keeps $2
28 + 2 = 30.
And theyres all the money.

Thats 30

Rent at first: $30
Each pays $10
Actualy rent: $25
Return: $30 so Return for each: $1
Original $10 paid minus $1 returned: $9
3 G's so $9 + $9+ $9 = $27
Owner has $2
G's paid $27.
$27 + $2 = $29

read mine carefully.. i pointed out where the trick is

the 27 figure INCLUDES the stolen 2 (25 for the room + stolen2 = 25), the trcik is addnig it on, the 3 given back is what should be added on there (25 for the room, plus stolen 2= 27 + 3 given back = 30)

Maths riddles are unfortunatly just that...

...riddles / tricks...they hide the most simple problems underneath something that is thrown in to disorientate you...

...think outside the box..as my math teacher used to say lol

You need to understand that total cost was $27 not $30 because they each got $1 back.

So forget about $30 and the $3 given back.


Total cost = (9) (3)= $27

Rent cost = $25/3 = $8.33 each person for rent

Manager Tip = $2/3 = .066 each person for tip


$9[total cost] = 8.33[rent] + [.66]tip

OK. I don't know if you're just messing around, or if you're really this stupid. Let me simplify it, or put it into terms you're more familiar with.

Your dad, your mom, and you spend a night in a hotel. The hotel keeper is Asian like you, so he says "Give me 30 cats for my dinner, and you can stay the night". Your family comes up with 30 cats and you spend the night. Meanwhile the hotelkeeper and his family eat the cats. The next morning he says "those were too many cats" and he gives your family back 3 cats, and keeps 2 for his pet snake (which he is just feeding so he can eat it later). Now your family only paid with 27 cats, and he has 2. So where is the other 1? Well, he started off with 30 cats, his family ate 25, he gave back 3, and kept 2. Now you would add 25+3+2=30.
