You saw a shirt for $97. You didn’t have the cash, so you borrowed $50 from your mom and $50 from your dad = $100. You bought the shirt, and had $3 change. You gave your dad $1 and your mom $1 and kept the other $1 for yourself. Now you owe your mum $49 and your dad $49. 49+49 = 98 + your $1 = 99. Where is the missing $1?

reallynoswag:

The real mystery here is why the HELL would you buy a shirt for $97. Is it made of gold or some shit?

what the mind fuck.

 damn taxes

 

This is why I don’t believe in math.

Dumb.

You give both your parents $1.

Now you owe them both $49.

49 + 49 = 98

You still have $1 with you.

Subtract that from what you owe them.

98 - 1 = 97

You have to save up $97 (because the shirt cost $97).

Once you’ve saved up $97, add it to your $1.

97 + 1 = 98

Divide the $98 by two (so you can give it to both your parents).

98 / 2 = 49

smh.

    There is no missing dollar. You didn’t count the $2 you just gave to your parents. You owe each $49 for a total of $98...
