This may be an old one for some, but I beleive result was cool

1. Grab a Calculator.
2. Key in the 1st 3 digits of your phone number (NOT THE AREA CODE)
3. Mutiply by 80
4. Add 1
5. Multiply by 250
6. Add the last four digits of your phone number
7. Again, add the last four digits of your phone number
8. Subtract 250
9. Divide number by 2

Do You recognize the answer ?????

That's neat but not too interesting since it relies on you to key in all of your digits at one point.

A cool phone number trick I saw was from a guy who played cards semi pro and he had a trick where through a process of moves with the cards spelled out the phone number of someone he didn't know. That was cool. Still scratching my head about how he did that one.

I would like to know who was so bored to sit down to figure out a calculation that would bring them back to this answer.
