The missing dollar puzzle is a classic brain teaser that involves three friends who collectively pay $30 for a hotel room. Later, the hotel manager realizes the room should only cost $25, so he gives $5 to the bellboy to return. The bellboy, instead, gives each friend $1 back and keeps $2 for himself. The confusion arises when trying to reconcile the total payment: the friends initially paid $30, got back $3, and the bellboy kept $2, which leads to an apparent discrepancy. The trick lies in the misdirection of adding the bellboy's $2 to the remaining $27 instead of subtracting it from the original $30.

What is the answer to the Missing dollar puzzle?
The Missing Dollar puzzle involves three people who collectively pay $30 for a hotel room. After realizing the room should only cost $25, the manager gives $5 to the bellboy to return. The bellboy, unable to split the $5 evenly, gives each person $1 back and keeps $2 for himself. The confusion arises when trying to add the $2 kept by the bellboy to the $27 paid by the guests, leading to an apparent "missing" dollar. In reality, the total spent is $27 ($25 for the room and $2 for the bellboy), so there is no missing dollar; the puzzle misleads by incorrectly framing the arithmetic.
