I'm totally lost on the above 
I prefer these types of questions
3 men are seated in a restaurant
They order a meal each.
After eating the meal they request the bill.
The waiter gives them the bill which equals £30.
After much squabling, the men decide to split the bill three ways (£10 each)
As the waiter is going back to the till, he realises there is a special on this week where three dine for £25 but as he cannot split £5 between three equally and as he wishes to avoid a further arguement with the men (and because they didn't tip!) he decides to keep £2 himself as a tip and gives the men £3 change (£1 each).
Now, if he gives them all £1 each change you don't need to be a math genius to realise they have therefore paid £9 each per meal.
3x9 = 27 (+2 the waiter kept as a tip)= 29
So where did the other pound go?
