This is pretty neat how it works out?

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST

It takes less than a minute.......

Work this out as you read.

Don't cheat and read the bottom until you've worked through it!

This is fun!

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have dinner out (try for more than once but less than 10).

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

3. Add 5 (for Sunday).

4. Multiply it by 50 - I'll wait while you get the calculator................

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1753.... If you haven't, add 1752..........

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 have eat out each week.)

The next two numbers are...

YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it IS!!!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2003) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS. IMPRESSIVE, ISN'T IT?

Hey Saroj,

It will also work next year and all the years after that....just replace 1752/1753 by 1753/1754 to make it work for 2003...

the number is a simple result...
let x be the no. I guessed and let I was born in
19ab

the number u get in end is :

100x + 2002- 19ab(in case ur bday has not passed)

or

100x +2003 - 19ab(in case ur bday has passed)

so ur first digit of this three digit number is number u thought and last two r ur age..
