Solution to the quiz

    • Here Today Is The Answer below

    Lets say you saw a laptop of 97K.
    You didn't have the cash, so you borrowed 50K from
    your mom and 50K from your dad = 100K. You bought the
    laptop which left you with 3K change. You gave your dad back
    1K and your mum 1K and kept the other 1K to yourself.

    Now you owe your mum 49K and your dad 49K. That is
    49K+49K = 98K + the 1K kept = 99K.

    Where is the missing 1K?

    Solution:
    Divide the remaining 97000 by 2 = 48500, Add the 1000 thousand giving to the both parents making it 49500 for each, then plus the 1000k left with you, If you share it into 2 that is 500 each it will now be 50,000 each '''' making 100,000 thousand. Simple

    97000 + 2000 ÷ 2 = 49500
    1000/2 = 500

    then 49500 + 500 = 50,000 each

    50,000 + 50,000 = 100, 0000

    The Laptop was 97k
    Total of 100k (50k+50k) was borrowed
    Change was 3k which in the first instance wasn't for the borrower
    Out of the 3k he gave 1k each so that left him with a balance of 49k to each
    However, the 97k for the laptop if available would be shared 48,500 to the lenders which equals 97k so if they both ‎are given the 1k + 1k each, the 1k with the borrower should be shared 500 to each. That will balance the distribution so no missing money. Sir

    50k from dad and mom each =100 k

    bought laptop for 97k
    Remaining 3k

    Gave dad and mom 1k each =2k
    Kept the remaining 1k with you


    All together making 3k (remaining change)
    Plus the 97k for laptop =100k

    No money is missing.
