How to predict a person’s date of birth With the knowledge of this technique, you can predict the birth-date of hundreds of people simultaneously. (Note: There are many such mathematical ways by which you can predict a person’s date of birth but the method given above is one of the simplest methods)

How to predict a person’s Date Of Birth

STEPS

(a) Ask the people to take the                number of the month in which         they were born (January is 1,           February is 2 and so on…..)

(b) Next, ask them to double the            number

(c) Add 5 to it

(d) Multiply it by 5

(e) Put a zero behind the answer

(f) Add their date of birth (If they 

      are born on 5th January then             add    5)

   

After the steps are over, ask them to tell you the final answer. And lo! Just by listening to their

final answer you can predict their date of birth!

SECRET

From the answer that you get from each member of the audience,

• Mentally subtract 50 from the last two digits and you will have the date

• Subtract 2 from the remaining digits and you will have the month.

Thus, you will easily get his date of birth.

Example:

Let us suppose I was a member of the audience. My date of birth is 28th June. Then I would     have worked out the steps as follows:

1. Take months number  = 6
2. Double the answer     = 12
3. Add 5 to it                     = 17
4. Multiply by 5               =85
5. Now put zero behind answer                                                =850
6. Add the date of birth  =850+28                                             =878

      Thus my final answer is 878. Now, let us see how we can deduct my date of birth from the final answer. We will subtract 50 from the last two digits to get the date. Next, we will subtract 2 from the remaining digits to get the month.    

     

 ● Now we have answer 878 

● subtract 50 from the last two :     digits to get the date .            

 ● There fore we have last two       digits are 78  

● So there fore 78 - 50= 28    
● So we get date of birth is 28     

■Next, we will subtract 2 from        the remaining digits to get            the    month.   

■ Now we have remaining is 8 

■ There fore subtract 2 from 8       to   get month number 

■ So there fore 8-2=6

■ So we get months number

On similar lines if the total was 765, 1481 and 1071 the birthdates would be 15th May, 31th December and 21st August respectively.

With the knowledge of this technique, you can predict the birth-date of hundreds of people

simultaneously.

(Note: There are many such mathematical ways by which you can predict a person’s date of birth but

the method given above is one of the simplest methods)
