    Pretty Neet, YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT

    Get a calculator ready!

    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

    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!)



    THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2008) IT WILL EVER WORK.
    They call me Supertech for a reason

    It works but it's not to amazing really.
    Not when you consider that you adding the year you were born into the equation.

        actually it works every year you just have to keep increasing the 1758 or 1757 for each year after 2008. learned this back in gradeschool 11 years ago teacher was a lil crazy though kinda explains things. just a lil fact
