Your Age by Chocolate Math

This went viral in 2009

 

Don't tell me your age; you'd probably lie anyway-but the Hershey Man will know!

 

YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

This is pretty 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.

First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate (more than 1but less than 10)

Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

Add 5

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

If you have already had your birthday this year add 1759

If you haven't, add 1758.

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

(how many times you want to have chocolate each week).

The next two numbers are

 

YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it WAS, in 2009 that is!!!!!)

 

 

 THIS ONLY WORKED IN 2009, SO IT WILL TELL YOU HOW OLD YOU WERE THAT YEAR.
