FASCINATING...

TRY THIS!!! I dunno if it works on numbers outside Australia, but this is pretty cool!!!
Use your landline number for this...


Here is a maths trick that will stump you.


1. Grab a calculator. (you won't be able to do this one in your head)
2. Key in the first four 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 recognise the answer? nod biggrin

It'll work for any 8 digit number anywhere in the world because, if i may be a total loser for a moment:

x = the first four digits of your number

y = the last four digits of your number

> (((80x + 1) X 250) + 2y - 250) / 2.

> (20,000x + 250 + 2y - 250) / 2.

> 10,000x + y.

So if x is, for example, 1234 and y is 5678. the product will be:

> 12,340,000 + 5678.

> 12,345,678.


I'm a twat, right? sad

i've got a 6 digit number and it turned it into a 7 digit - it repeated a "3" in the middle of the number
