Riddle

[Wild-Fire]

Hi there everyone, I ran into a fun riddle when I was reading something online and I would like to share this riddle and see who can figure it out.

-Three men checked into a hotel, costing $30.

-Each man paid $10.

-When the night manager came on he said: "That room was only supposed to be $25", so he sent the bellhop to return the extra $5 the men paid. On the way, the bellhop said "they can't divide $5 equally".....

-So he put two dollars into his pocket and gave each man back a dollar.

-Well.....Each man has a dollar back so he paid $9. 3 X 9 = $27
The bell hop has $2 in his pocket.
That makes $29.
Where's the other dollar?

The hotel owns $25, bell man $2, each man $1x3 = $3. Which adds to $30.

That $2 should be subtracted from $27 not added. As the 3 men each paid 9 dollars, of that 25 goes to the hotel, 2 goes to the bell man.

No such thing as extra dollar.

That was fast, you suppose to take few hrs...

I had to go to the harry potter forum to find out. But those slackers are so bad at adding spoilers, I found out the plots by accident. Need to get hold of book soon.

This is one of the best riddles of all time in my opinion, probably now it is too easy cause everyone has heard of it. It took my whole 6th grade class about half an hour to figure it out.

Riddle: There are two eskimos fishing. The little eskimo is the big eskimo's son, but the big eskimo is not the little eskimo's father, what relation is the big eskimo to the little eskimo?

They are part of a quadruplets...I bet you never heard that answer before right, and it is still correct as well.

All three/four/five/six are females.

Nope. Think on this one for a few minutes man. When I first heard the answer, I was like, "Oh my, THAT really is the correct answer"! I was very shocked. This was such a good riddle because of how long it took everyone, yet the answer was not that complicated.
