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

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read .




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.
