Your Age by Eating Out
This was sent to me by a friend. You must do this it works!!!!!
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 1758...
If you haven't, add 1757.
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!)
Freaky huh.
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2008) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS

Are you kidding? Math this early in the morning?
They never let me teach math when I was in the classroom, for obvious reasons.
Love this little 'Math Riddle."
Oh Oh Oh...just scrolled down and saw myself. Thanks.
wow, came up with
936
and that is correct!
How did you do that?
This is pretty neat.
Scarey!!
Hey! That is neat. It said 2 times (which would be Wed & Fri) and 39. How cool is that!
You come up with the neastest things!
i can't do this....Don't wanna know!!
Ah very good. Did you by any chance get a moment to do the foot one I sent you today? Now that kept me occupied all day long. :o)
daffy I've done the foot one before and it is fascinating how it works :)
Very Funny!! Cynthia - makes you 36 with 9 times out at the testaurant? No?
I have seen this before in a different guise... Clever though!
I had to drag out the calculator for this. :) 941 :) Yep, it works.
Nah!!! I am 54 not 55 sigh... I did the bastard thing 3 times still am 54 unless my mum and dad got it wrong
I'm with Lisa...need a calculator! Pretty neat!
OK I was all excited that I would really like to eat out 6 times a week so someone else could cook the rest of the time! But really I don't think I have quite reached 89 just yet! Going back to redo and check!
Ok I did it again, this time I got my age right but it said I would prefer 7 nights a week eating out! LOL! I can live with that, really I can! Did I ever mention Im not great at Math?
Okay I made a boo boo! I have since fixed it! OMG it works! Ha ha! Just shoot me now okay!
Seriously now granny, its wine time! Not math time! Now cheers! Have a great weekend! Love ya!
That's cool. Spot-on for moi :)
