OUT TO DINNER MATHEMATICS <br /><br />This is pretty neat how it works out. <br /><br />DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST <br /><br />It takes less than a minute....... <br /><br />Work this out as you read. <br /><br />Don't cheat and read the bottom until you've worked through it! <br /><br />This is fun! <br /><br />1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have dinner out. (try for more than once but less than 10) <br /><br />2. Multiply this number by 2 (Just to be bold) <br /><br />3. Add 5. (Just because) <br /><br />4. Multiply it by 50 - I'll wait while you get the calculator................. <br /><br />5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1753.... If you haven't, add 1752.......... <br /><br /> Keep Going <br /><br />6.. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born. <br /><br /> Keep Going <br /><br />You should have a three digit number . <br /><br /> Keep Going <br /><br /> <br /><br />The first digit of this was your original number <br />(How many times you want to eat out each week.) <br /><br />The next two numbers are... <br /><br /> Keep going <br /><br />YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it IS!!!!!) <br /><br />THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2003) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND <br />WHILE IT LASTS. IMPRESSIVE, ISN'T IT?
