Where Did the Missing 1,000 Rupees Go?
I borrowed *50,000 rupees* from my mother and *50,000 rupees* from my father, making a total of *100,000 rupees*. I purchased a water motor, which was discounted to *97,000 rupees*, saving *3,000 rupees*.
From my savings, I returned *1,000 rupees* to my father and *1,000 rupees* to my mother, keeping *1,000 rupees* for myself. Now, I owe *49,000 rupees* to my father and *49,000 rupees* to my mother.
If I sum these amounts:
*49,000 + 49,000 + 1,000* (with me), the total comes to *99,000 rupees* —not the *100,000 rupees* I initially borrowed.
Where did the missing *1,000 rupees* go? 🧐
Can anyone help solve this mystery?
