YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH
This is really, really neat!

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute .
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. Really!!



1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like
to have chocolate (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 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator.....

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 ....
If you haven't, add 1755.

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).
And this is the coolest part.....
The next two numbers are
YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

C = number of times
1 < C < 10
50(2C + 5) + 1755(6) - YearBorn = 100C + Age
100C + 250 + 1755(6) - YearBorn = 100C + Age
2005(6) - YearBorn = Age.

Yeah, that will always work for ages less that 100.

C = number of times
1 < C < 10
50(2C + 5) + 1755(6) - YearBorn = 100C + Age
100C + 250 + 1755(6) - YearBorn = 100C + Age
2005(6) - YearBorn = Age.

Yeah, that will always work for ages less that 100.
