SECOND METHOD.

EXAMPLE.

Suppose the number thought of to be 6

1. Let him double it 12

2. Add 4 16

3. Multiply by 5 80

4. Add 12 92

5. Multiply by 10 920

Let him inform you what is the number produced. You must then, in every

case, subtract 320; the remainder is, in this example, 600; strike off

the 2 ciphers, and announce 6 as the number thought of.
