Here is a lil math trick to impress the chicas at the desi weddings.
1. GRAB A CALCULATOR. (YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO DO THIS ONE IN YOUR HEAD)
2. KEY IN THE FIRST THREE DIGITS OF YOUR PHONE NUMBER (NOT THE AREA CODE)
3. MULTIPLY BY 80
4. ADD 1
5. MULTIPLY BY 250
6. ADD THE LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR PHONE NUMBER
7. ADD THE LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR PHONE NUMBER AGAIN.
8. SUBTRACT 250
9. DIVIDE NUMBER BY 2
DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE ANSWER?
All the girls that tried this, please reply to the thread with the final answer you get on your calculator. Thanks
Heh...reminds me of an old joke from that cartoon "Reboot".
The number one and two walk into a bar. They both look around and notice all the other numbers are on the opposite side of the room from number seven, scared out of their wits.
One turns to two, and asks "why's everyone so afraid of seven?"
Two, himself now scared, replies "because 7,8,9!".
The funky math trick is just multiplying the first three most significant digits with 10000 and adding the last four least significant digits to it. Nothing funky about it!!
So if a phone number is 123 4567, multiplies 123 X 10000 and adds 4567 and you will get the same number.
