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

  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!

[Shape D.]

But , there are no Grey Elephants in Denmark!

but are there  Tan Jackals in Djibouti?

[missioncontrol]

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'.

[hyiu]

pick a number...  a

multiply by 2, add 8,  div 2, - itself...

=(2a + / 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...
