Don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
 



3. Add 5
 



4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

5. If you already had your birthday this year add 1759 ...
 

If you haven't, add 1758.
 



6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born
 



  
 

You should have a three digit number

The next two numbers are
