I don't think this is properly a math question. The original phrase was, "the same old seven and six," and it originated in England during the 19th century. It was a common reply in response to an inquiry about the health or affairs of a person, such as, "How are things?" or, "How have you been?" "Oh, the same old seven and six." The phrase refers to the prevailiing weekly wage among workmen at the time being seven shillings and six pence. It implies that "things" have gone as usual with nothing extraordinary having occured. There have been many variations on the term since.
