I have tried this 3 times now and none of them have turned out right. :?
 
Nope didnt work for me actuallly dar out on my age!!! :lol:
 
I'm now going to demonstrate my ability to be reallllly boring - if you don't like algebra, turn away now!!!

(((number x 2) + 5) x 50 + 1757) - yearborn = (100 x number) + age

(100 x number) + (5 x 50) + 1757 - yearborn = (100 x number) + age

250 + 1757 - yearborn = age

age + yearborn = 2007

If it's not working for you, get a calculater out :wink: And it will work next year, you'll just need to add 1757 or 1758
 
I done it right. It gave me 222 as an answer and i said 1 and im 21

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat. (more than once but less than 10)
