IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE IF YOU SPLIT THE DOLLAR AND GIVE IT TO THE PARENTS IT COMES OUT WITH YOU OWING THEM 97 BUCKS. FUNNY PLAY ON THAT .99=1 THING.

Great explanation... :utellin:

When you add up at the end, its 49+49+ the two $s that the parents got back... You wouldn't count the one that he has. Those the 2 dollars he gave his parents are what counts. If he was buying a 95 dollar shirt and borrowed $50 from each parent got $5 dollars back and gave each of them $2 dollars then he would owe each of them $48 so $48+$48+the $1 he has= $97 so if that is your logic then he is now missing $3 dollars because you don't count what he has when adding up to the $100. Because in the first problem you start with $100 you owe the parents $49 dollars each but they don't actually have the $49 dollars, the store has them. You owe them $49 but you can't count money that the store actually has. So when you add it up it should be. the store has $48.5 of the dad's money+48.5 of the mom's money+ the dollar the dad has+the dollar the mom had+the dollar the kid had. There is no way it is even logical to say he owe's the mom and dad 49 each and then count his 1... Because you're counting money that the parent's don't have. They only have 1 dollar. so in reality the problem REALLY should be he owes the parents 49 each right? so it isn't positve 49 it is NEGATIVE $49 so -$49-$49+$1=-$97 and that NEGATIVE $97.

Fukk the math, Was it a Gordon Gartrell

 

[Token]

There is no missing dollar. The parents paid $98 total. The kid took 1, so you subtract that dollar from the total.

98-1= 97

The shirt was $97. No money left.

The problem with this problem is that they are adding that dollar (49+49+1) when they should be subtracting it (49+49-1).



Edit: Dammit, somebody answered it already.
