The Generous Aussie

Trick brain teasers appear difficult at first, but they have a trick that makes them really easy.

Two Australians arrive in the U.S with a total of $100. They divide it equally. One of them, seeing a woman complaining about having little money, gave $25 to her.

How much money do the two Australians now have in total?

The answer is not $75.


Hint

Remember, this is in the trick category--so simple arithmetic is not going to help.
