Brain teaser

I saw a shirt for $97. I borrowed $50 from Mom and $50 from Dad. I bought the shirt with $3 of change. I gave $1 to Mom, $1 to Dad, and kept $1 for myself. Now I owe my mom $49 and my dad $49.

$49 + $49 = $98 + my $1 = $99. Where did the other $1 go?

You have posted your question wrong wrong.

 

It is $49 plus $49 equals $98, minus the $1 you kept, equals $97, which you paid for the shirt.

 

No sales tax where you live?
