This might be old but I just saw it today so no insults pls..


Incredible but true:

MAGIC MATHEMATICS

This is what I call magic
mathematics!

Bring out your calculator and do this:

1. Take the last digit of your
phone number.

2. Multiply by 2

3. Add 5

4. Multiply by 50

5. Add 1766

6. Subtract your year of birth

7. You will get three digits

8. The first digit is the last digit
of your phone number

9. The remaining digits are your
actual age...

Any objection?

Good to play with but not perfect though. Many loop holes n So its no magic.good try

There is no magic there... . It's just a simple mathematics. So don't feel like boss.. . If you doubt me remove the 1766 and try and another number let's see whether it will work-out. The Last phone 3digits number is just there as a constant . It doesn't affect the expression. ... undecided undecided

Nice one though.well am a maths lover n their is nothing mysterious abt this.Did u stop n ask y 1766 was added,well d trick is simple 1766+250= 2016 (current calendar year,will explain d 250 part later).and wen u subtract ur year of birth from d current calendar year,u end up getting ur age,nothing special about it.The phone number actually is irrelevant as it is there to get sm ppl surprised.This is what I mean,add ur age to any multiple of 100 (100,200,300 n so on) definitely d last two digit will b ur age.
Let d phone number digit b x
(2x + 5)50 = 100x + 250 .....now this is hw d 250 came abt. 100x + 250 +1766 = (100x + 2016] ,now u minus ur yr of birth.u can see DAT x can only b whole now from 0-9 n so doesn't affect d trick.(921,821,721,621).
Good one though but e get loop hole sha.
It won't work for ppl born on or b4 1916.reason is simple too.#peace
