A Missing Dollar Three friends check into a single room in a motel and pay $10 apiece. The room costs $25 instead of $30, so a clerk is sent to the room to give $5 back. The friends each take back $1, and the clerk is given $2 for his trouble. Now each of the friends paid $9, a total of $27, and the clerk received $2. What happened to the missing dollar?
