Have you ever felt the urge to guess someone’s age? This urge is especially strongest when the person is too shy to talk about it. That’s where mathematics comes in handy. In this article, I’ll be sharing a nice little mathematical trick that will help you guess anyone’s age.
I’ll give you two variations of the same trick first. Then, I’ll explain how the trick works so that you can come up with your own variations. Are you ready to come across as a wizard in front of your friends? Let’s get started.

This way, you’ll catch them off guard.
