Dear all,
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). Use the landline number and not cell no.
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?

Hey Rajat
There is nothing like unbelievable in this.
Multilplting by 80 and 250 means multiplying by 20000.
And adding 1 in between means adding 250 once more.
Which you took away by subtracting 250 at last.
Multiplying by 20000 and dividing by 2 means multiplying by 10000.
Which means adding four zeros to the back of the initial three digit number of our phone.
Again adding twice the last four digit and dividing it by 2 means adding it once only, which will replace the last four zeros by your added number.
And there it is, your phone number.
And it works not only for seven digits but for all number digits.
if it is five digit number then split it into one and four digit.
if it is six digit number then split it into two and four digit and so on.
Maths is not for stumping you,
but for helping you to hit a six.
Hows that.
