Actually you borrowed $48.5 to each friend but your giving back money from the debt :biggrin:

because the T-Shirt cost you $97 and 97/2=48.5 then you back $1 to each

and (48.5 + 48.5 )(debt)+(2)(money back also debt)+(1)(money you keep also debt)

(49.5 +49.5 + 1 )(debt) = 100(debt) :top:


P.S I Attached another puzzle

You need to make all the frogs from one color cross to the other side:top:

yeah took me a while to see it but Blocker's right..
consider your borrowed money as 2 different money pots.
1: 97$
2: 3$

you want to give them their money back so you start with the 97$ first, and split by 2. it comes out 48.5.
you then take the 3$ and give each 1$ from it. 49.5$ each.
now you're left with 1$ and 49.5$ each and that's it.

got me thinking in the morning.. very good one!

This isn't healthy for the brain in the morning. I'm pretty sure people weren't made to think so much so early :(
