minus-squareEochaidlinkEnglish8•1 year agoMath like that is really simple if you take it in easy chunks. For example, to calc your age, just take the years from birthday to 2000 (11) and add it to the years since 2000 (23). 11 + 23 = 34. Best part is the first calc never changes - so if you remember thst number it’s just like having a 2000 birthday. Just add 11.
