Guest Andrea Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood 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. 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). The next two numbers are YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!) THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

GWSmith Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Re: Chocolate Math Numbers were Right on! Though I picked a number of times I would like to have chocolate..not the actual number of times. Which is much less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Re: Chocolate Math Cool BTW, the only people that lie about their age are women. If a man gave an incorrect age...it's just because he made a mistake and forgot. If his wife was around...she would immediately correct his mistake and let him and everyone else know about it too.
