What Makes Some Numbers 'Magic'?

Magic numbers are special because they show up in cool ways. Like the number 7, you have 7 days in a week, 7 colors in the rainbow, and even 7 deadly sins! If you take any number and add up its digits until you get one digit, it's called a magic trick. Try with your age or your favorite number, it always works!
