Question Of The Day!; Answer If You Are Genius by Nobody: 9:01am On Jun 10, 2015 |
If you get the answer right, I swear you are a super genius. A lady bought goods worth ₦200 and paid the shopkeeper with a ₦1000 Note. The Shopkeeper had no change on him so he went to another Shopkeeper John his neighbour and collected ₦1000 change in ₦200 denominations, with which he settled the lady and she left. A little while later, John came back angrily after he discovered the ₦1000 note he was given by the shopkeeper was fake, and demanded A replacement. To avoid trouble, the shopkeeper had To give John another ₦1000 and destroyed the counterfeit which had no real value. So Question for the genius... How much has the Shopkeeper lost in total? |

He has lost 1000 naira + 800 naira and a good worth 200 naira. Therefore, he has lost 1800 naira and a 200 worth of good |

He lost only 1000 naira which was counterfeit. The 1000 naira which he lost represented 800 naira + 200 naira worth of goods. If you say he lost anything more than 1000 naira what happens if the money was not fake, its means he would have made more than 1000 naira for a transaction that involves 1000 naira (#800 change + #200 worth of goods). Only #1000 was lost. 2 Likes |

aorseer: You have forgotten that he has also paid 1k to the other guy John. He we are talking about what has happened, paying for the fake money, 1k, giving a change of 800 naira, losing a good worth 200 naira, not what could have happened if the money was not fake |
