英语翻译
Mr Knight was the manager of a hotel .One weekend all of the hotels in the city were full because there was a large meeting.On Friday night ,three men came into the hotel and asked for rooms .He explained that because of the meeting ,there were no rooms ready for use .The men were very unhappy because they had no place to stay.He wanted to help them.He remembered that Room418,a very small room upstairs,was empty .He asked the men if they would share it.The three men said they would.
He said that he rent would be thirty dollars .Each man should only pay ten.The men agreed,paid the money and went up to the room.
He soon began to feel sorry ."Thirty dollars id too much for that small room,"he thought,’I should give them a discount ."
He called hid assistant over and said ,"Here's five dollars .Give it to the men in Room418.I've asked them too much money for that small room."
The assistant took the money .While he was on the way to Room418,he started to think,"How can three men divide five dollars I'll give each of them only one dollar and keep two dollars for myself.The men will be happy enough to get anything back.I'll take a little money and Mr.Knight will never know .‘So the assistant returned one dollar to each man .
Now the puzzle is :Each man had at first paid ten dollars .When each got one dollar back from the assistant ,it means each man had actually paid only nine dollars.There were three men .$9乘3=$27.The assistant kept $2.$27+$2=29.Where is missing dollar

knight先生是一家旅馆的经理,在一个周末,城市里所有的旅馆都住满了人因为那里有一个大聚会,在星期五的晚上,三个人走进了旅馆并询问是否有房间,他解释说因为聚会的原因,没有可以使用的房间了,那三个人非常地不高兴,因为他们没有地方住下来,knight先生想帮助他们,他记得418房,楼上一个非常小的房间,是空的,他问他们是否他们可以一起住下,那三个人说可以.
他说租这个房子要三十美元,每个人只要付十美元,他们同意了,付了钱就上楼去房间了,
他开始感到抱歉,“三十美元对那个小房间来说是不是太多了”,他想,我应该给他们打个折扣
于是他把他的助手叫过来,跟他说:“这里有五美元,把它给418房的客人,那个小房间我不应该叫他们付那么多钱的.”
助手把钱拿手走了,在他去418房途中,他开始想:“三个人会怎么分这五美元呢?我要给他们每人一美元,然后给自己留二美元,他们会对给还的钱很高兴的,我就拿一点点的钱,knight先生永远不会知道的“.所以助手只返还给每个人一美元.
现在的问题是:每个人首先是付了十美元,当每个人从助手那里得到一美元时,就意味着每个人实际上只付了九美元,有三个人,就是9美元*3=27美元.助手有:2美元,27+2=29美元,还有一美元去哪儿了?
