When my grandma was in town, she brought this book that was filled with all sorts of fun little "magic" games that you could do with a calculator. One that I found particularly cool was this: How to Find Your Age Using "Chocolate Math". All you need is a calculator.
Here's how you do it.
1. 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
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50 (You will probably need a calculator.)
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1760 .
If you haven't, add 1759.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
7. After doing this, 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).
8. The next number is YOUR AGE!
