Later, the clerk realizes he made a mistake, that the room should have been 25 bananas. He calls the bellboy over and asks him to refund the other 5 bananas to the 3 monkeys. The bellboy, not wanting to make a mess dividing the 5 bananas three ways, decides to lie about the price, refunding each monkey 1 banana, keeping the other 2 bananas for himself. Ultimately each monkey paid 9 bananas towards the room and the bellboy got 2 bananas, for a total of 29 bananas. But the original charge was 30 bananas.
Where did the extra 1 banana go?
