To prove that 2+2 = 4, you would have to follow a 23,085 step method, involving quite a bit of math (2,204 subtheorems) and a rather lot of time. If you feel like reading through them all, you can find the proof (or rather, ordered list of all the steps), by visiting http://us.metamath.org/mpegif/mmset.html#trivia
Let's hope that you don't have the time to work through all of that.

numbers are made up anyway. they're supposed to be one of those things that are accepted. 2 X 2 is 4 does that help. 4-2 is 2
4/2 is 2.

What the hell? 2+2=4 because no other answer when added together will equal two when you use two numerial numbers and add them together. I just is, why do you need proof? Dx

2+2 = 4 because that is the way the number scale is defined. If the number scale were defined differently, then it wouldn't, but it is.
