if he gets to have 2+2=3.95 from a logical sequence of premises and conclusion or in other words, logical proof, he was probably able to DISPROVE SOMETHING...
it's like when you solve the system of equations below:
2x+3y=4
4x+6y=9
When you solve the system of equations, you'll come up with
0=1
or
0= -1
Coming up with such statements doesn't make them true
The system of equations above are parallel, thus it does not have any solution. The answers 0=1 and 0=-1 simply show that there is no solution for the system but does not imply that these statements[0=1 and 0=-1] are true.
Or
maybe, he used formulae in Physics to solve a problem which may be solved by a mere 2+2=4. What happens is, the easier solution [2+2=4] gives the accurate answer but when he used several formulae to derive 4, the significant figures and rounding off errors come to play, giving him an answer of 3.95.

How did you get from -10+4+25/4= -15+9+25/4 to (2-5/2)*(2-5/2)=(3-5/2)*(3-5/2... it is my answer: your line: -10 +4 +25/4 = -15 +9 +25/4 get all contained in the needed denominator 4: -40/4 + 16/4 +25/4 = -60/4 + 36/4 + 25/4 and upload them up for both side: a million/4 = a million/4

Not that I know of...I'm still using 2+2=4 in my 2nd year maths, so if its actually 3.95 then someone had been lying to use

Not true at all im afraid. The whole number its self can not be split unless you use a decimal place. ie 1+1 must be 2 as you have one and add another. There is no room for manouver.

No. But statisticians say 2+2 = approx. 4

may be He proved that 2+2= 3.95+0.05

I have never heard of it, but Im quite confident that it isn't true
