Jason said, "Pick any three dates that are next to each other in a month on the calendar. Give me only the sum and I'll tell you your dates."

Noriko secretly chose 14,15, and 16, and gave the sum 45 to Jason. In couple of seconds, Jason said, "The dates ue 14,15, and 16."

David secretly chose 22,23, and24, and gave the sum 69. Again in a couple of seconds, Jason said, "Your dates are 22,23, and24."

What is Jason's trick?

Hint: Try some easier numbers, such as 7,2,3 and 3, 4,5 to see if you can find a pattern. How is the sum related to the dates? Copyright @ Great Source. All rights reserved.
