Well i am asking a question......
But let me tell u directly I DONT KNOW THE CORRECT ANSWER OR ACTUALLY DONT REMEMBER IT
BUT can surely recognise the right argument....

ok question-

ones 2 friends went to a shop to buy two watches.but the shopkeeper was not there so his servant
asked for $50 (25*2) and the friends paid the amount and bought the watches.
But when the shopkeeper came he said to the servant that the watches worth only 22.5$ each and so gave 5$
to the servant and asked him to give 2.5$ to each friend.but the servant was greedy and kept 1$ from money of each
friend (so kept 2$)and paid 1.5$ to each friend.now the watches cost them 23.5$ .
now the main part .......total money in the end=23.5+23.5+2(servant)=49$ but money paid by friends initially=50$
where is 1$????????
I have been asking this question since i was in class 3 and m now in 12..out of 37 people whom i have asked the question one one (my friends Arush) was able to correctly tell me where the problem is.
and please write somting in comments even if u cant answere this question as u will be knowing by now that i
m counting the people whom i have asked the question

23.5+23.5+2(servant)=49$
price of watch is 22.5+the servant gives 1.5..
24+24+2=50... no smart logic here you just gave a false equation

Like Delivaryboy said
You are just trying to confuse us with the equation you gave.
