RESTAURANT MATH : calculating one's age

Do you know how to calculate one's age by just taking him/her out to dinner ? You don't have to ask their age directly; because they would probably not tell the truth anyway. But you can get the truth out by simply using this RESTAURANT MATH trick. Here it goes :

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read through line by line.
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!

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. Really !!

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 to the result. If you haven't, add 1757.

6. Now subtract the result with the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number, right ?

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 ... jeng-jeng-jeng


YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!)


But please take note that THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2008) THIS METHOD WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.
Hehehh... I told you it was fun, isn't it ?
