c'mon SV/VS! You have 90 people in your gangs, alone! 
 
U need a remedial math class... wait.... WTF am I doing posting in these full on homo forums??? 
 
oh yeh! alcohol.... mmmmmmmm alcohol! 
 
I do suck at math. :) 
 
Teach me! 
 
3 guys go into a hotel needing a room for the night. They go up to the counter and ask the person how much for a room? The guy behind the counter says I am the bell hop and the manager had to step out but I think the rooms are 30 bucks a night. 
 
So each guy pulls out 10 bucks and head up to their room. 
 
The manager comes back and the bell hop tells the manager he sold a room for 30 bucks. The manager says the room are only 25 per night so take the 5 bucks and give it back... 
 
The bell hop on his way to the room realizes that each guy gave him ten so he decides to pocket 2 bucks and give them each a dollar... 
 
so now each guy got back one dollar, and therefore paid 9 bucks each for the room... 
 
9 times 3 is 27 plus the 2 bucks the guy pocketed is 29...  
 
what happened to the other dollar?? 
 
It is not complex.  You are thinking too hard on this.  Room was $25 out of $30 that was paid, and only $3 was returned to the three people.  $25 (room cost) + $2 (bell hops tip) +$3 (ea got one) = $30.  The extra dollar went to pay the room, you are just focusing on the wrong numbers. 
 
Skipping the basic math, why are three men sharing a room with a max of two beds?  And for $25 you can bet there is only one bed.  So they are really paying $9 per guy to get their assets checked? 
 
The idea is to look at it this way: 
 
Each guy shelled out $10. 
Each was given back $1. 
So each effectively paid $9. 
The bellhop took $2. 
 
9 * 3 = 27  
27 + 2 = 29 ≠ 30
