having a break and some fun... I could not figure out how this one works though. Can you?
Try it yourself...
1. Grab a calculator. (you won't be able to do this one in
your head)
2. Key in the first three 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 recognize the answer?
