Can someone please help me answer this Missing Dollar Riddle for my economics class? 3 men share a motel room at $30 a night. they each pay $10. they complain that the room was not clean the manager

then gives the bellhop $5 to give the men, the bell hop takes $2 and gives each man $1 instead of splitting $5 between
3. so the men would of each paid $9 because they got the $ back. 9+9+9 is 27 and the bellhop got $2 so that is 29.
where did the other dollar go?
