~ I Can Tell Your Age ~

This is pretty neat how it works out.

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST

It takes less than a minute.......
Work this out as you read.

Don't cheat and read the bottom until you've worked through it!
This is fun!

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like
to have dinner out. (try for more than once but less than 10)

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