Dining out = Your age. Try this quiz! Not horsey, but fun anyway!
I came across this little quiz and thought I'd share it just for fun. It will tell you your exact age!
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
Work this out as you read .
1. 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
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 !
Apparently 2008 is the only year that this will work. Can anyone figure out why?!
