1. Key into the calculator the first 3 digits of your phone number (not
area code).
2. Multiply by 80
3. Add 1
4. Multiply by 250
5. Add last 4 digits of your phone number
6. Add last 4 digits of your phone number again
7. Subtract 250
8. Lastly, divide by 2
Is this your phone number???

Any idea how it works? I'm trying to derive an algorithm that explains it and can't get it

It's not that difficult... When you multiply the first 3 digits by 80 and then by 250, you've basically got your XXX number to XXX0000 (because you'll divide by 2 later). You've also added 1 to the second result and multiplied that by 250, and then later subtracted 250, negating that. The adding your last 4 digits twice was negated by dividing by 2 at the end as well.

Stop answering "yes", of course it works, if it didn't work then your math sucks. The calculations are very simple, there's no way for it to not work.

Now someone higher me to code something, I've proven myself.

he didn't ask us to figure out how the equation works, he asked us if this was our # or not. really what have you proved besides not being able to read direction and follow them?

let ABCDEFG be your phone #, each letter is a digit

step 1.
ABC

step 2.
ABC * 80

step 3.
(ABC * 80) + 1

step 4.
((ABC * 80) + 1) * 250
which is
(ABC * 20000) + 250
which is
(2 * ABC0000) + 250

step 5.
(2 * ABC0000) + 250 + DEFG

step 6.
(2 * ABC0000) + 250 + DEFG + DEFG
which is
(2 * ABC0000) + 250 + (2 * DEFG)
which is
(2 * ABCDEFG) + 250

step 7.
2 * ABCDEFG

step 8.
ABCDEFG

If you wrote that as an equation, instead of in words, it would be very ,very obvious why it works...
