This was taken from http://technosailor.com/2006/02/24/lets-do-some-bible-math/. It is really cool ... read on.....
1. Was Adam alive when Noah was born?
2. Was Methusela (or anyone else) alive at the time of the flood?
First, the first question:
Adam=930 years
-130 (adam to seth) 800 years left on earth for Adam
-105 (seth to enosh) 695 ”
-90 (enosh to kenan) 605 ”
-70 (kenan to mahalalel) 535 ”
-65 (mahalalel to jared) 470 ”
-162 (jared to enoch) 308 ”
-65 (enoch to methuselah) 243 ”
-187 (methuselah to lamech) 56 ”
-182 (lamech to noah)
uh oh. 126 years short. So no, Adam was not alive when Noah was born.
Neither was Seth. He was 14 years short.
Seth’s son was alive, be when he died Noah was only around 100 years old.
Where am I going with this? Question number two.
Was Methusela (or anyone else) alive at the time of the flood?
The short aswer is…yes. Methuselah was. Now let’s take that a step further.
Was anyone other than Noah, his sons and their family alive? The answer is…yes.
Methuselah had 969 years on Earth.
When Lamech was born he only had 782
When Noah was born he only had….600
When Noah’s sons where born he had….100
At this point Noah was….500 years old.
At this point Noah was….500 years old.
Genesis 7:6 reads:
Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came on the earth.
So during the year of the flood Methuselah was exactly… 0 years away from dying. So, either he died in the flood, he died before the flood, or he went on the ark.

1. He went on the ark- no.
Genesis 7:13 says “On that very day Noah and his sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth, together with his wife and the wives of his three sons, entered the ark.” Clearly Methuselah was not on the ark.
2. He died before the flood- possible.
Genesis 7:11 reads:
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month - on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.
So going by probability, what are the chances that he, after living for 869 years, just happened to die a few weeks before the flood? Not all that likely.

3. He died in the flood- probably.
oing by pure odds, it would seem more than likely that Methuselah died in the flood.
What does that mean? I don’t know. I guess he was evil. It seems odd that someone who was given such a long life by God even as people were getting less long-lived, ended up dying in one

of God’s forms of punishment. Maybe he did die before the flood, but chances are he didn’t.
