Try this!!
This riddle must be done IN YOUR HEAD and NOT using paper and a pen.
Try it - it's weird......

- Now add another 1000.
-
Now add 30. Another 1000.
-
Now add 20.
- Now add another 1000.

?
? Did you get 5000?
Well you're wrong!!!
The correct answer is actually 4100
Don't believe it?
Check it with a calculator or on paper!!
?? The brain sure knows how to play little tricks on us, doesn't it?
Now try this second number trick:
-
First of all, pick any number from one
to nine. (1-9)
-
Multiply this number by 2.
-
Add 5.
-
Multiply it by 50 (where's that
calculator?)
-
If you have already had your birthday
this year (2003) add 1753. ? If you
haven't had your birthday in 2003 yet,
add 1752.
-
Now subtract the four digit year that
you were born.
You should now have a three digit
number:
The first digit of this was your
original number (remember....the number
you picked at the beginning from 1 to 9)
The second two digits are your age.
Don't ask how it works. It Just
does!!!
