pilot humor, my solution to the"missing dollar question"

Some pilot humor::

Flying Instruction for Dummies

1. Always try and keep the number of your landings equal to the number of your takeoffs.

2. The probability of survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival.

3. In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminium going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to loose.

============================================

Buttercup borrowed $50 from Bubbles.
And another $50 from Blossom.
With $100 on her hands,
she bought $97 worth of Currypuffs.
$3 was what she had remained.
She returned a dollar to Bubbles and Blossom each.
The last dollar, she kept for herself.
She owes Bubbles and Blossom $49 each.
That would be $98 in total.
Including the dollar Buttercup kept, the total amount equals to $99.
Now, where is the $1?

========================================

solution:

google "the missing dollar on the internet and you would find many other similar maths puzzles...

for this question :

	Before borrowing	After borrowing, before buying	Right after buying	After giving back $1 s
Buttercup	$0	$100	$3	$1
Bubbles	$50	$0	$0	$1
Blossom	$50	$0	$0	$1
Currypuff Shop	$0	$0	$97	$97
Total	$100	$100	$100	$100 =D

hope this helps .

*btw, you are not supposed to add the $1 to the $98...should be subtracted = $97, = what they paid in total.*
