>>14274175the 1$ and the 98$ refer to different things, what he has and what he owes. the 100$ are distributed as follows: 97 for the company, 1 for the dad, 1 for the mom and 1 for the girl.
if the shirt costed 50 instead of 97 and the girl returned 24 to her dad and 24 to her mom and kept 1 then you could ask, 24+24+1=49 where is the last 1$?
