This is a quiz based on the SKY TV Programme, great fun:

I do OK unless Spanish questions come up, I never had the chance to study Spanish :mrgreen:

Try this one Strum
Write down a number
Double it
Add 5
Multiply by 50
Add1756
Subtract year of birth

Answer is a three digit No.
Ist. No. is the one you wrote down or thought of.
Second two should be the age you were on the first of Jan. this year.

[grammer]

number --6
x2-----12
+5-----17
x50----850
+1756----1606
-1943----??????


ehhh chiro I think theres a slight problem :D :D

[Strum]

1
Doubled = 2
+5 = 7
X by 50 = 350
+ 1756 = 2106
- 1959 = 147

So by my calculations going by the above, I'm 98 years older that I actually am? :D

Yes I'm smarter than a 10 yr old! :mrgreen:

[Chiropodist]

I have it on a paper in front of me but I didnt bother to do it myself.
It is sad that you are so old Strum, it must be very hard for you :D

[*stargazer*]

Grammer 850 plus 1756 is 2606 minus 1943 is 663

[Strum]

It is sad that you are so old Strum, it must be very hard for you :D

Ahh I've been worse Chiro! Thanks! :D

[Chiropodist]

Here is another one Strum.
Take shoe size
double it
Add 5
Multiply by 5
Multiply by 10
Add age
Subtract 365
Add 115

Answer is a three digit number
Ist one is the Shoe size
Last two should be your age.
Where Continental shoe sizes are used, the answer will be a 4 digit
number

[Strum]

Yep that worked! :cool:

[grammer]

hey hey that worked
I take size 6 1/2 shoes and Im 39

I like that one :D :D :D :D :D :D :roll: :roll: :roll:









wishful thinking unfortunatly I take size 10 shoes :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Chiropodist]

Thats a big size Grammer, Have you tried fitting a couple of canal barges. They are long lasting :rave:

[Chiropodist]

Strum, and Grammer,
Try doing that first one again and where it says add 1756 make it 1758. I have done it on my calculator and it came up with the right answer.Question again. Heres mine I am 87. I thought of No. 10
Think of a number 10
Double it 20
Add 5 25
Multiply by 50 1250
Add 1758 Add 1758 =3008
Subtract Year of birth 1921 = 1087



Answer should be the one first thought of, and age, on Janurary of this year.

[Chiropodist]

Sorry chaps, that should read
Add 1758 ONCE, and not twice, as I have mistakenly typed.

[Chiropodist]

Strum
If your calculations brought up 147 then you have the first No. right and you are 47 years old but, adding 1758 now leaves you at 49 years old.

[Strum]

Yep that's it Chiro. It works! :cool:

[Strum]

Try this Chiro.
