Maths Magic Demystified.(Age By Number)

What was the magic?

Let's assume the last digit as 'x'. Now let's go step by step & see how this x is processed.

1- Take a look at your last 4 digit of your cell phone number

x

2- Use this figure and multiply by 2

2x

3- Then add 5

2x + 5

4- And then multiply by 50

50(2x+5) = 100x + 250

This puts the your mobile number's last digit at hundredth place.

5-And then add the number 1766.

100x + 250 + 1766 = 100x + 2016

6- Add bonus 1 if you have celebrated your birthday this year.

100x + 2017

7-The last step; with this number, subtract your birth year.

100x + 2017/2016 - birth year

  
How we calculate our age? If we have already celebrated birthday while calculating age, we take (current year - birthday year) or otherwise (previous year - birthday year). The simple equation applied here as well.
