Birthday Math – Did you know that about 10 million people in the world share your birthday? Use basic math skills with this fun birthday trick: Have participants write down the number for their birth month. For example, January is 1, February as 2, and so on. In this example, we'll use the month of May = 5, and date = 31. Add the number for the month and the next highest number together: 5 + 6 = 11. Multiply the sum by 5: 11 x 5 = 55 Next, multiply the sum by 10: 55 x 10 = 550 Add their date of birth: 550 + 31 = 581 Subtract 50, and you will have the student's date of birth: 531 (5/31 or May 31st)
