DAY 407

Tom and Tina both have some money (in dollars).  They each want to buy a gift card, but neither of them has enough money. Tina needs $2 more, and Tom needs $24 more. They decide to combine their money and buy one gift card, but they still don't have enough.  How much is the gift card?

Answer:

$25 ....................  If Tina only needs $2 more, and they still don't have enough money after Tom gives her what he has, Tom must only have $1.
