Can you guys do me a favor?

in that case, there must be something wrong with your calculators

My thought exactly Thanks!

Thanks everyone.. looks like it does work after all, since most people got n+2, two more than the number they started with..

I quite like Math actually

using your algorithm you should end up with your original number plus two, not six

Let's say your original number is x

-add 3.
x + 3

-double it.
2x + 6

-take away 5.
2x + 1

-add 7.
2x + 8

-subtract 4.
2x + 4

-multiply by 10.
20x + 40

-divide by 20.
x + 2

-take away 7.
x - 5

-give back 10.
x + 5

-take away 3 more.
x + 2

HUH?????????? what did you just say.....
