You'll wow a crowd when you calculate the age of volunteers simply by asking how many times a week they like chocolate. Okay, you need a little more information than that. If you're clever enough, you can figure out how to get all the numbers you need and you'll still be able to shock your friends and family.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Ask your volunteers how many times a week they want chocolate. This number should be from 1 to 10.
Step2
Double that number. For example, if your volunteer wants chocolate five times a week, you double that number to 10.
Step3
Add five, and then multiply your number by 50. If you take our sample number listed above, it would become 15 and then 750.
Step4
Take your number, and add 1757 if your birthday has already passed this year. If your birthday is still ahead this year, add 1756. If your birthday has happened this year, add 750 and 1757 to make 2507.
Step5
Subtract the four digit year that you were born, and add the number of years that it is greater than 2007. If you were born in 1978, subtract that from 2507 to get 529. If it is 2010, you would add 3 to get 532.
Step6
Interpret the three digit number and impress everyone in the crowd. The first number is your original number of how many times a week you want chocolate. The last two numbers are your age. If you are under 10, the age will start with a 0.
