Other Games Your shoe size can tell your age! (2015 only!)

SPOILER: Mathematics involved here. Sorry

@magicnerd808 you'll like this. I know you will.

1. Take your shoe size (Mine is 11) (No half sizes, round up)

2. Multiply it by 5. (55)

3. Add 50 (105)

4. Multiply by 20 (2100)

5. Add 1015 (3115)

6. Subtract the year you were born. (1114)

It says my shoe size is 11 (Which is true), and my age is 14 (This calculation assumes you've already had a birthday in 2015, in other words, I will be 14 before 2015 ends, even though I am 13 right now).

Test it if you want. I'd like to see :)

Also note that this calculation will not work if you are 100 years or older (But who in the world is 100 going on a minecraft server? -_-)

Example:

AGE: 99

SHOE SIZE: 12

60

110

2200

3215

1299 (Size 12, age 99)

AGE: 100

SHOE SIZE: 12

60

110

2200

3215

1300 (Size 13??? age 00??)

 

1. 7
2. 35
3. 85
4. 1700
5. 2715
6. 715
This works, but you gave it the year when you were born so it doesn't count xD

 

Woah o.o

10
50
100
2000
3015
1013
I'm 12 but my birthday is in June Soo.. You said that we'd assume I already had a birthday in 2015 so yes clearly this is right..

 

1. 8
2. 40
3. 90
4. 1800
5. 2815
6. 816
Woh, my shoes size is an 8 but I'm 15 not 16. :/

 

Easy enough.
Let's say x is your shoe size, and y is the year you were born.
That's 20(5x+50) +1015-y.
It simplifies to 100x+2015-y.
100x = Your shoe size with two zeroes, and 2015 - y is your age.
And that's why you can't be older than 100, it messes with your shoe size.
Did you find this out your self, or find it on the internet?

 

Both. I happened to create an algorithm which was very different, but still useful, though it did not work as good as this one. I finally searched and found this in facebook. It was a better version than my old one.

 

Not to be off topic, but why is this is other games?
BTW this thing really works, but I can see how :P

 

Uhhhhh

Shoe size: 6

Age: 12 (I turned 12 in 2014 so if it says 13 it will be correct)

1. Take your shoe size: 6

2. Multiply it by 5: 30

3. Add 50: 80

4. Multiply by 20: 1600

5. Add 1015: 2615

6. Subtract the year you were born: 613

Cool

 

I'm not size 715 ._.
Tho I am size 7 and 15 years old.

 

...

 

1015.

I am a size ten but I'm 12, almost 13.

 

You probably did the math wrong or missed a step because I'm 12 and size 10 and I got the right answer xD

 

It's not as much as magic trick as it is a play on numbers

 

Oh I did the math wrong. xD

I ended up getting 1013.

I guess this is accurate.

 

Your birthday says 1998. I checked your profile.

I'm assuming your shoe size is 7, from your calculator.

1. 7
2. 35
3. 85
4. 1700
5. 2715
6. 717 (Assuming you'd be 17 this year)

 

yeah, I got 1214, I'm 13. But that's because I haven't had my birthday yet, it's in march :)

 

my shoe size is 43 (Europe) so I don't know how big in america/other sizes
