I love these little math things. I got this in my email and thought I would share it with you. Have fun!
YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT
Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway-but your waiter may know!
YOUR AGE BY DINER & RESTAURANT MATH
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!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.
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.
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
How neat! It worked.
ReplyDeleteOkay...I told you it didn't work for me but I did it AGAIN (for the fourth time) and it did work. That is pretty neat!!
ReplyDeleteWHOA!!!!! it worked!! That is so cool :)
ReplyDeleteI've seen this before, back when it said that 2005 was the only year it would ever work. Lol. Still funny though.
ReplyDeleteInteresting quiz.It got my age right too.
ReplyDeleteI like those fun math puzzles. It worked for me too! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat's neat! It worked for me.
ReplyDeleteThat was really neat Kris!!
ReplyDeleteKaty-Anne,
ReplyDeleteThe numbers that you add are different every year. That's why this particular one will only work in 2007.
Oh me...how funny. LOL Isn't that strange?
ReplyDelete~Kristi

ReplyDeletelol but you ask what for the person's birth year in one of the steps....if a waiter or other person knows that, why do the rest..:) lol
