(Figuratively speaking)You see a shirt you like for $97. You borrow $50 from mom and $50 from dad and buy the shirt. You have $3 change, you give one dollar to mom and one dollar to dad and you keep the last dollar for yourself. So now you ow mom and dad $49 each 49+49=98+1( one dollar you kept)=99. Where's the last dollar?

ᏞᎾᏞ just a play on words. Ꮜ borrow 100, shirt costs 97, leaving 3 change. Ꮜ give 1 to each parent (2), leaviving Ꮜ with the last dollar.
100-97=3
1 mum +1 dad +1 Ꮜ =3

Why would a shirt cost $97?
That's the real question.

The shirt only cost 97. 1 dollar for you, one for your mom, and one for your dad

Here is my answer from 25 weeks ago.

Hmmm... So
In simple terms.

Borrowed from Mom: +50
Borrowed from Dad: +50
Total borrowed: +100
Repaid Mom: -1
Repaid Dad: -1

Total (re)paid: -2

Piad for shirt 97
total kept 1

total still owe -98
-98+-2 =-100

If your paying $97 for a shirt you're getting ripped off.

Hehe, you'd probably have enough to buy a shirt.
