Someone sent me this on myspace. Worked one me.
Work this out -- it is fun and 100% accurate.
YOURAGE 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 BYSCROLLING 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.
Frst 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 tobe bold)
3.
Add 5
4.
Multiply it by 50
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1758...
If you haven't, add 1757.
6.. Now subtract the four digit yearthat 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 (2008) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE

That's pretty wild. My son who loves math will get a kick out of this.
And yes, it worked for me too.

Did you follow the instructions re: adding different number based on whether or not your birthday had already occurred this year? ____________________ "Come on down to the Mermaid Cafe and I will buy you a bottle of wine, and we'll laugh and toast to nothing and smash our empty glasses down..." |
