UNBELIEVABLE MATH PROBLEM!!!
Here is a math trick so unbelievable that it will stump you. Personally I
would like to know who came up with this and why that person is not
running the country. I wonder what it means...
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 recognize the answer

I think the result will be your phone number, but I don't think it will be applicable for phone numbers with 7 digits, as there are 7 digits in my phone number, and 8 digits exist in the final result. For example, supposed that your phone number is 5503302, then the ansewer wil be 550333302, not exactly the same. So I think it is just suitable for numbers with 8 digits, just my guess.
