Trick 3: Maths Swami Knows Your Age and Foot Size
July 9, 2018
Maths Swami 1: A Magic No.
Maths Swami 2: I Know Your Birthday
Requirements: Calculator and spooky demeanor
Imagine your birthday was 24 September 1973.
Written as an American date (not UK or Australia) this would be:
9-24-73.
Give the calculator to a student:
Take birthday month and add 18:
9 + 18 = 27
x 25
27 x 25 = 675
– 333
675 – 333 = 342
x 8
342 x 8 = 2736
– 554
2736 – 554 = 2182
Divide by 2
2182/2 = 1091
Add day of birthday date
1091 + 24 = 1115
x5
1115 x 5 = 5575
+ 692
5575 + 692 = 6267
x 20
6267 x 20 = 125340
Add the last two digits only of your birth year
125340 + 73 = 125413
– 32940
125413 – 32940 = 92473 = 9-24-73
Yes! Yes!
Hint: It probably would be easier to ask them for their birthday. Ha! But Maths Swami’s are mysterious beings.

Whenever your assistant asks is it this one? You will know.

Awesome Math Mural
May 28, 2018This math mural is on a high school wall, somewhere. It works because it has a street art vibe. Not a grade school math book look. That’s cool.
Why not do something like this for your school.
