Where's the dollar

Where's the dollar? Mum put this up on Friday - and I still can't work out where the mistake is.


Later: Armin Grewe sent this in by email - Thanks Armin!



There is no dollar missing: The bill is $25 + $2 tip = $27. Exactly what they paid: 3*$9 = $27. So where's the problem?


I assume the missing dollar comes from a $30 - $2 tip = $28 calculation? Only that's the wrong assumption.
