This Week's Maths Puzzle - Last Week's Answer

 by Tom Fairman




I hope you enjoyed counting on your fingers last week.

The cycle of 8 that the little girl was counting meant that the simple calculation was to divide 1962 by 8 and see there was a remainder of 2, meaning the index finger was the one that the count ended on.

This week:

“ I was n years old in the year n2 “ said Harry in 1971. When was he born?

Happy puzzling.
