Let's pretend you saw a t-shirt worth 97 cents at a store. Since you don't have any cash along with you, you borrowed 50 cents from your mom and 50 cents from your dad as well. So now you have $1. You bought the shirt and received a change of 3 cents. You returned 1c to your mom, 1c to your dad and you kept the remaining 1c.
So now you owe them 49c each.Here's the question:
49c + 49c = 98c is the total of how much you owe them, plus the 1 cent that you kept = 99c.
It was supposed to be $1. Where's the missing penny?
