The Apple Conundrum
Two women are selling apples. The first sells 30 apples at 2 for $1,
earning $15. The second sells 30 apples at 3 for $1, earning $10. So
between them they’ve sold 60 apples for $25.
The next day they set the same goal but work together. They sell 60 apples at 5 for $2, but they’re puzzled to find that they’ve made only $24.
What became of the other dollar?
Here, could be that lost dollar!
