Mysterious Dollar..

Hello Blogsville!!!! How have Y`all Been & how was your weekend ??? I know the week just started but i hope its going smoothly..

I stumbled upon this some weeks ago & thinking of how to solve or answer this weird puzzle or magic question,*yes Magic coz in my books if i don`t Understand then something`s wrong* has consumed my precious Me time and taken over everything including DiDi activities *insert any nice activity here*..

Read carefully.. I saw a Jacket at Macys and it was going for $100,because i was broke, i went home,borrowed $50 each from my Brother and Sister. When i got back to the Store the price of the jacket had been reduced to $97 so i had $3 change. When i got back home,i gave a dollar each to my siblings and i kept the last dollar which means i now owe them $49 each. If i multiply $49  by 2,i get $98 & if i add the $2 that i have already giving to them,it comes back to $100. My headache is why do i still have a dollar?

  1. This is a good one, Didi!!
    You actually owe each of them $48.50 after buying the jacket.
    You can relax now cos the extra dollar is imaginary. LoL $ bills have a tendency of doing that.

  10. I guess I am really slow cos I still don't get it. How come you owe them $48.5? If you took $50 and you gave each $1 then really, you should owe them $49 or? HELP!!! I'm thinking plenty!

  14. Ok, I think I see it now. Legit, you owe them 49 dollars each.However, the jacket cost you $97 se. So think about it this way, you are only delaying the evil day of repayment. Cos technically, you should have paid then $1.5 each. SO that say for instance you return your jacket and get a refund, you will only need to pay the $48.5 each = $97 together and you wont have an "extra $".

    Cos right now, think about it, if someone decides to "dash" you the money u spent on the jacket, you will still need that "extra" $1 in order to pay your siblings pay fully.

    So, you dont have an "extra $" o! You are just witholding change!...you berra go and pay up!onigebese...lol


    now...PRof. Peller...be gone! for realz!

  17. LMAO Oh Darling, it is not a magic dollar.

    When you got your $3.00 back you should have split it in half between your brother and sister giving them a $1.50 each. You would have then owed them $48.50 each leaving you with nada, zero, zelch, nothing. But because you kept $1.00 which technically was not yours, you then owed them each $49.00 and that my dear sweet Darling is were your "magic" $1.00 came from.

    smooches.....
    Yours truly, Rhapsody...

    p.s.
    I'll be back to read your comment on my response.
