I got a better way than this. take the present year and subtract the year you born. the answer will be your age.. 🙂
you tried to fool us. but you couldn’t
When we tell both the things for example the age (when you subtract by the year you were born in) and the shoe size, if it were that we only gave the shoe size and not our date of birth then it would have been better and more legit.
corrrect! but kindly ambiguous
Size: 8
8*5=40+50=90*20=1800+1012=2812-1985=”827″
but i was 27 in the beginning of the year and 28 after my date of Birth.. as Mark off on the Calendar.
Actually, Sara does not know your date of birth, you know, you calculate and you get the result.
The most problematic part of Sara’s materials are that they aren’t unique!Either these are copied from somewhere or at least, the concept is not new which can result in copyright problems but that is not a big problem.I like Sara’s jokes very much and hope to enjoy in future.
Dear friends
Please don’t treat it as serious maths. Yes, it is an algebric identity, so answer is obvious. Can’t we take it as fun game? Have you noticed the moderator never failed in sending us the jokes/morals/riddle regularly? Let’s encourage her instead of criticizing her, although healthy critcism is good for quality improvement.
sk ashif,
‘No, it ain’t serious math! But is not learning fan?even if it’s serious math!”
Is this a riddle you want us to guess the meaning?
Folks:
those who understand the meaning of the above sentence, please raise your hand. I guess he is tryin to fool us.
yes, I agree with you but don’t call it stupidity! The only problem is that it makes a big claim when it actually does nothing.
To Sara,
I am a great fan of your jokes and puzzles but not necessarily your maths!
And yes, I am very happy that what you are doing is good for the muslim community but you need more intellectual maths so that we enjoy this to engage in a colorful math learning.
It is simple math algorithm!the last two digits will always come 12(remember the current year 2012!), so when you subtract the year you are born, this results in your age.Thanks for trying to fool us!
To sk Asif
Why are you so negatively minded? Nobody is trying to fool you!! This whole thing is meant to be a nice trick using some numbers to achieve someone’s age and shoe size.
If our lord Allah has given you the ability to see this trick easily (whereas lots of people can’t) You ought to be thankful for that instead of behaving in such an arrogant manner.
You are welcome to comment but not to call me arrogant!
The way the language is used in this trick has a chunky claim when it does not do anything impressive.It is like asking you all the informations and exactly manipulate those to amaze you.
Sorry…………but I am not impressed….
9*5=45+50=95*20=1900+1012=2912-1998=914
THE AGE COMES TO BE 14 YRS, BUT CALCULATING FROM 1998 IS 17 YRS.
Whoever goes ahead to do the calculation like I did is a fool. Who doesn’t know when he or she was born..
Thanks Sarah for making a fool of myself.
simply Amazing!
Mathematically justified
But Nice for Fun !
Well SARA,
any how we can perform such calculation but this calculation we are totally blank of result.
Could you or anyone put the finest trick to get known the others age??
by using maths only!!!
i mean the person who ask for calculations is only don’t know the answer.
The varying viewpoints is a reflection of the interest shown by participants.
It’s not necessary to take the shoe size, if you take any number between 1 – 9, then calculate as mentioned. Result, the last two digits is your age.
indeed a long process of calculation, but why is it necessar to make addition of 2012
What if this year is 2013 or another year other than 2012 , this will not work, you will need to add 1013 instead of 1012,
If you enter the date of birth then you don’t need of so complex calculations Simply sutract the date of birth from the current year.
I got a better way than this. take the present year and subtract the year you born. the answer will be your age.. 🙂
you tried to fool us. but you couldn’t
You are genius Shameem. 🙂
When we tell both the things for example the age (when you subtract by the year you were born in) and the shoe size, if it were that we only gave the shoe size and not our date of birth then it would have been better and more legit.
Here is the theory
x – shoe size
yyyy – date of birth
((((X * 5) + 50) * 20 ) + 1012) – yyyy
=100x + 1000 + 1012 -yyyy
= 100x + 2012-yyyy
=x * 10^2 + age
= x pq
if the age is morre than 100 , it will notwork !!!!!!!
What????

take it as a fun instead of thinking negative.
Its Very Simple; if u you subtract born year with current year then it will show your age e.g. 1990-2012=22 😉
NO SURPRISE NOTHING IN IT….IF I KNOW SOME ONES DATE OF BIRTH IT’S VERY EASY TO CALCULATE AGE……….
VERY BORE………………..

Sorry misspelled fun and instead wrote fan, I apologize for this unintentional mistake.

Yh right… My shoe size is 723 :s
To Sara,
your comment writing interface is not good, try to improve it and try to make it more gmail like!
Nothing new we not need all this mess because the end ask what the year you born and first ask shoe size stop stupidity
yes, I agree with you but don’t call it stupidity! The only problem is that it makes a big claim when it actually does nothing.
