Thats pretty much the lamest math question ive heard Anyone who has common sence can solve it. If it was between more people or something then simply use variables

You got $x. Your friend got $(x-2)
Total = $20
x+x-2 = 20
2(x-1) = 20
x = 11

You got $11 and your friend got $9

I know you can just say it out but eh .... math > *

What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth
