The hardest riddle of all time,,?

betty goes to bank,,deposits $ 50,,


from next day--





money withdrawn____money left


_____20____________30


_____15____________15


_____09____________06


_____06____________00





total=_50____________51





from where did that 1 $ in the section 'money left' came from??


if there were only $50 deposited and no interest,,





^_^|||A clever deception. Adding the withdrawals is valid but , that is not true of adding the remaining funds.


Let's try $100 and only two withdrawals. The first is 80 and the second is 20. The sum of withdrawals is $100 but, adding the remaining after the first withdrawal is only $20! Adding the remaining after each transaction does not tell us anything and is not a useful accounting technique anymore that adding the days on a calendar.|||763565234761





haha......i have outwitted u all|||$1 was already in the bank *before* betty added 50$





by the way if u add the money withdrawn....it comes out to be right.....but if u add the money left...it doesnt give u the total balance|||1 dollar had to be in the account for it to already be open.
