The puzzle involves a man who steals $100 from a store, later returning to buy $70 worth of goods and receiving $30 in change. The question is: how much did the store lose?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s break it down. The thief first steals $100, leading to an immediate loss. Then, when he buys $70 worth of goods with that stolen $100, the store gets the bill back, canceling out the theft. However, the store still loses $70 worth of merchandise. Finally, the $30 in change handed to the thief represents an additional loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"A man steals a $100 bill from a store, goes back and buys $70 worth of goods....\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bQ8e3myvQxs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people argue that the store lost $100, others claim $130, but the most logical answer is $100. This includes $70 in goods and $30 in cash. The stolen $100 bill, once returned, doesn\u2019t add to the loss. The true loss lies in the goods and cash given away. Thus, the store&#8217;s total loss is $100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/?p=56737\">also read&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A viral brain teaser has recently gained attention across social media platforms, leaving people perplexed over how much money a store lost in a seemingly simple situation&#8230;. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":56797,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56796"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=56796"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56796\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56798,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56796\/revisions\/56798"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/56797"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=56796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=56796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=56796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
