Accrington Web - Chocolate mathematics

Chocolate mathematics:

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. (try for more than

once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (Just to be bold)

3. Add 5. (for Sunday)

4. Multiply it by 50 I'll wait while you get the calculator........

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1754.... If

you haven't, add 1753 ......

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!!!!!)
