Each person paid $9.333333 after the dollar was returned to them...case closed.
You should be asking the whereabouts of the fractions of a penny...was a good story years ago where a bank teller figured out a way to skim the tenths of a cent from interest deposited into accounts - accounting programs could not detect it he made millions before bragging about it and getting caught.
Those three people and the bellhop could bring down the
4 x mile record.
Actually it's a great riddle. and the way it works for those of you who are acusing this poor riddler of false or idiotic ways are simply forgetting the fact that IT'S A RIDDLE! there IS a missing dollar in the riddle...because of the way that it is worded. Look at how it's worded and it simply takes the equation out of PEMDAS (order of operations). the reason you all can make sense of it is just putting it back into order of operations and spelling it out in a more logically visible manner. So great riddle, i've heard it with an extra dollar or missing the dollar.
pryor ftw
