Wow, that's about as clever as the proof for 2 = 1:
let a = b
=> a.a = b.a
=> a^2 = ab
=> a^2 + (a^2 - 2ab) = ab + (a^2 - 2ab)
=> 2(a^2 - ab) = 1(a^2 - ab)
=> 2 = 1
QED.
Now, where's the nearest Zebra Crossing? :)

Yeah, not so much :P
Since when can you prove ANYTHING when dividing by 0, besides snake oil cures PMS?

Hey, you're not just supposed to *tell* people how the proof works, that's why it's called Mathemagics right?!?
Let x = 0.999999...
=> 10x = 9.999999....
=> 10x = 9 + 0.99999....
=> 10x = 9 + x
=> 9x = 9
=> x = 1!
=> R = Q

Hey, what's that smell......?

Orange Tigers From Etheopia..
GG!

But , there are no Grey Elephants in Denmark!
but are there Tan Jackals in Djibouti?

ouch that made my brain hurt :-\

I ended up with a grey aardvark in Cambodia (my thinking process is shot today).
Edit: looking back on it, I think the term "subtract by the original #" threw me off. Who subtracts by anything? Thats like saying 'it's a quarter of four' instead of 'it's a quarter to four'.

pick a number... a
multiply by 2, add 8, div 2, - itself...
=(2a + 8) / 2 - a
= a+4-a
= 4
but I am thinking brown eagle in Denmark.
not grey elephant....
I guess this is not good enough.

I had an orange aardvark from Canada.

I'm surprised at the number of people willing to admit they got the math wrong. :)
And maths is Cool! It's noticing things like hyiu getting caught by the "commenting pointer" that's nerdy... ;D
