Title: Advanced Math Trick.........try this
Post by: mc1962 on June 06, 2009, 09:54:46 pm

Think of ANY number
Double that number
Add 10
Divide by 2 (cut in half)
Subtract the first number that you started with
Your answer is:

FIVE (5) :dontknow:

X= number chosen

2X+10
    2

(Reduced)  X + 5

so then.....  X + 5 - X = 5

all the time...... not really an "advanced math trick"  :icon_rr: :bootyshake:
