3x$10 = $30 - $25 (restaurant) - $2 (waiter) - $3 (3x$1 refund) = $0.....no mystery there.

Waiter comesback tells them meal ois 27$ Gives them back 1 Bux each ( that will make it 27 ) 3 of them x by 9 bux each 27

Dude, there is no missing buck....you don't work back to the $30 after the waiter gives back $1 to each of them, you are only working off $27 then....why do you try to get back to $30?

Think of it this way, there is only one person, they give you $30 and you give them back $3, no reason to "find" the $3, it is in their pocket.

Because you are thinking about it as a $30 meal rather than a $25 meal....if you think of it that way they overpaid by $5 and only got $3 back and the waiter stole the other $2.....better

You'r counting waiters 2 stolen bux twice...
3guys x $9=$27 $27+$3=$30

and that $9 contains already bux that waiter stole ($8.33333 for the meal each + $0.66666 "tip" each =$9 each)

Get it?

answer: 27-2=25

30 is a deceptive number.  The important number is 25 which is what the restaurant owner expects.  the guys paid 27.  the waiter stole 2 bucks.  the restaurant owner got 25 bucks.

if you really want to account for the thirty bucks:

30-3 (refund to clients)=27
27-2(taken by waiter)=25 (what owner gets)

30-3-2-25=0

missing buck is only based on the false assumption that you should add the two missing bucks to 27 (paid) to get 30 instead of subtracting them to get 25 which is the real key number

from owners view:

                          me  friend1  friend2  waiter     owner gets total
owner gets:      + 10  +  10    +  10                   =30
owner loses:       - 1     - 1        - 1       - 2         =25

customers view:

we lost:  30
we get:    3
we paid: 27

so owner gets:      25$
we paid         :      27$
there is         :        2$   too much, but no one notices difrence because waiter took 2$ which were left over.

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows? 

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.

Thirty white horses on a red hill,
First they champ,
Then they stamp,
Then they stand still.

A box without hinges, key or lid,
Yet golden treasure inside is hid.

Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.

PM me for the answers
