YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATHS
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 have chocolate
(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 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator
5. If you have already had your birthday this
year add 1759 ..
If you haven't, add 1758.
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 chocolate
each week).
The next two numbers are
YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2009) IT WILL EVER
WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

Dear friends this isn't amazing at all. I agree with the earlier post that when you are providing your year of birth then you add anything or subtract anything are only diversionary tactics.
See the mathematical logic below
[{(2X+5) X50} +1758]-1980
=100X+250+1758 = 2008+100X-1980 = 28+100X
Here X is the no. of times you want to have chocolate. And suppose 1980 is the year of birth. After going through all necessary calculations we are left with our age and then add 100 times of your age to get the 3 digit figure with the first figure as the no. of time you want to have chocolate.

7. Now subtract the four digit year that
you were born.

I saw it today itself.
(S)Crap of the First order.
There is another one - both published umpteen times in every school magazine - which goes like this:
Title : Finding time to study.
One year has 365 days.
Now subtract the number of Sundays = 365-52 = 313
Now subtract the numberof holidays =
You sleep 8 hours in a day. So subtract (365 X 8 hours)/24 =
Time to eat, dress, toilet etc. etc. ad nauseam.
The remaining result would be 1 day; and the idiotic school student would further write : So would not you like to spend this 1 day with your parents and friend?
I think this is a grown-up people's forum.
I think rajmore22 should complete his schooling first.
Please, no more of such time-wasters.
God Bless.
