If your bored!!!

YOUR AGE WITH CHOCOLATES

DO NOT GO STRAIGHT TO THE END ...

It will only take a minute

Do the math as you read the instructions

Don’t read the end until you have done all the calculations

I promise it is not a waste of time, you will find this amusing.


1. How many times a week do you fancy eating chocolate?
(Choose between 1 and 9)

2. Multiply that number by 2



3. Add 5



4. Multiply by 50 – go on, get that calculator out!



5. If you have had your birthday in 2006, add 1756. If your birthday is still to come, add 1755.




6 Now take away the year you were born.




You should have a three digit number. The first is the number of time you fancy eating chocolate in a week.

The other two digits are ...


YOUR AGE!!!

2006 IS THE ONLY YEAR IN ALL ETERNITY WHEN THIS WORKS.

Yeah, it does. We here at the Kobiashi Institute™ hear concerns like yours and find the answers immediately (becaue that's what we at the Kobiashi Institute™ are here for!).

Our ace team of . . . whatever their technical positions are called, answered the questions using a leap year (in this case 1960) and the answer was correct.

That's cool!
