I borrowed 500 from my father, 500 from my mother, and bought a pair of leather shoes for 970. I have 30 yuan left, so I pay 10 yuan to my father and 10 yuan to my mother. I have 10 yuan left. I owe my father 490 and I owe my mother 490, 490+490=980. Add your own 10 yuan = 990. Where did the other 10 yuan go?
Translated from space, can anyone solve it and give it to 1W?
Guess what

A total of 1,000 yuan, buying shoes costs 970, that is 970% (divided by) 2 = 485, which is the cost for each parent. You keep 10 yuan, 10% 2 = 5, then add this to 485 each, getting 490. 490*2 + the 20 returned = 1,000.
Use to buy leather shoes

I know, you can't count it like this!
To be more detailed
It needs to be counted backward; the forward calculation has a logical error.
Someone has posted it before, it depends on the calculation method.
Uh... OP, I don't know
Me! This question is wrong. Wrong logic.
The remaining ten yuan you have is what you borrowed from Dad and Mom. How can you add up the money you borrowed from them again? OP, do you think my explanation can convince you, my 10,000…
This question has a logical error
Simply put, that 10 yuan is included in the 980 yuan.
My head is aching
This is a mathematical paradox
Still owe 10 yuan
