Flaws in math

3 guys go to a bar and get drunk. They decide to be responsible so they get a cab and go home. At the end of the trip the cab driver says it will be $25. Each person pays with a $10. She gives them back $5 so they all split it evenly. Each person takes $1 and they give her a $2 tip.
So here's the problem. the cab ride was $25, they paid $30, they get $5 back and each take $1 so that's $3, then they gave her a 2 dollar tip

that means each person payed $9 9x3= 27, $27 + the $2 is $29.

So my question is. Where is the missing dollar?

The logic is wrong. They paid $30, subtract the $2 for the tip and you get $28, not $27. Then the extra $3 is split evenly among them.

where are you getting $3 from when you said it was $28?
