Alright, this one is for all the math wizards. Us Mexicans call it The Dollar
I see a pair of jeans that I like for $97. I don’t have the money so I ask Juan and Pedro to let me borrow $50 each for a total of $100. I buy the $97 jeans and get $3 in change. I decide I’ll give each $1 back and I keep $1. I now owe Juan $49 and Pedro $49 for a total of $98 now in debt. I keep $1 and owe $98. Thats $99! Where is the other dollar??!
