The total discount of Rs. 5/- is split into 2 parts:

Rs. 3/- which is refunded to them, and Rs. 2/-, which is held by the waiter. But while counting their individual contribution, only the Rs 3/- is considered, while Rs. 2/- is ignored…tat means firstly the 70/3=23.3333 and adding the 1/- that they got bak …so the amount goes to 23.3333+1=24.333 similarly the 2/- must also be considered among 3 the people ie.,2/3=0.6667…so,finally adding the 24.333+0.667=25 per each person and 25*3=75 the total amount for 3 persons and no rupee is lost…
