A bank customer had £100 in his account. He then made 6 withdrawals, totalling £100. He kept a record of these withdrawals, and the balance remaining in the account, as follows:




Withdrawals Balance left
£50 £50
£25 £25
£10 £15
£8 £7
£5 £2
£2 £0
£100 £99


Why are the Totals not exactly right ?

• Sum of Balance amounts can not match with sum of withdrawls.
  If withdrawls and balances are like this ..
  5......95
  5......90
  90...... 0
  
  then there will be much more difference in two sums.
