Puzzle #179 - Mystery of the Missing Money
20-Oct-11

Ronen & his friend Anil opened shops next to each other. Both of them sold eggs in their respective shops. Ronen sold his eggs at the rate of 3 eggs for Rs. 10 whereas Anil sold eggs at 2 eggs for Rs. 10. One evening, they both had 30 unsold eggs each. They decided to go out for dinner and, hence, handed the 30 eggs each to a friend and asked her to sell the eggs at 5 eggs for Rs. 20. (As per Ronen's calculations, 3 for Rs. 10 and 2 for Rs. 10 was synonymous with 5 for Rs. 20).

The next morning, they expected to get Rs. 250 as they would have earned had they sold their eggs separately. However, when their friend handed them their money, they were shocked to know that they had got Rs. 240 instead. Using this data, determine where they had gone wrong. Provide a detailed explanation along with your answer.
