Chocolate Calculator:
 
 

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway -  but the Hershey Man will know! 


YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

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.


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 1759 ..
If you haven't, add 1758.




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!!!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2009) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

It's those idle moments waiting for glue to dry Hans....

I wondered if the superglue had stuck your fingers to the keyboard!

Well PD's....what a monumental mathematical mystery tour this is.........

Question for Stuart....[Badger].....some as PD members [ ] were wondering how many days until you could use the ""1759"" numeral the calculation???

............as were do notice you are shall we say ...'attaining a mature' birthday this year ......please confirm this so we can all have a    to celebrate..... .....& a    for Gerald.............Derek

Hi Eddy,

there must be a lot of glue to dry

Derek -

sums was never my strongpoint! and to be honest I have unilaterally decided that as from the 5th of May I am going to be counting my age backwards! This will make me feel younger and give my wife the totally false impression that she is living with a toy-boy!
