Title: Your Age by Eating Out

YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT

This is pretty neat.

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN
FIRST!

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read ...

Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!


1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat.

    (more than once but less than 10)


2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)



3. Add 5



4. Multiply it by 50


5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1757...
    If you haven't, add 1756.


6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.



You should have a three digit number.



The first digit of this was your original number. ( i.e., How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)



The next two numbers are



YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!!!)



THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2007) IT WILL EVER WORK

That reminded me of this oldie.  

   
 Here is a math trick so unbelievable that it will stump you.
 Personally I would like to know who came up with this and why that
 person is not running the country.


 1. Grab a calculator. (you won't be able to do this one in your head)
 2. Key in the first three digits of your phone number (NOT the area
 code)
 3. Multiply by 80
 4. Add 1
 5. Multiply by 250
 6. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number
 7. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number again.
 8. Subtract 250
 9. Divide number by 2

 Do you recognize the answer?

Thats very clever as well.

  Even works for Australian phone numbers.
