2+2=3 !!! answer this correctly, and get 10 PTS!!!?

Question

here is a mathematical equation, the first to find why 2+2=3 will get 10 pts

A=B A^2=AB < multiply both sides by A
A^2-B^2=AB-B^2 (A+B)(A-B)=B(A-B) ---------------------------- < _Divide by (A-B)
(A-B) <
A+B=B B+B=B 2B=B --------- <__divide by B
B <
2=1 < result
2+2=3
P.S. yes I am allowd to convert A to B beacause A = B. This is actually simple algebra. If at any time you get comfused, get 2 coins, and another 2 coins, and put them together, if you come up with 3 coins, then I want to see the coins your using ;)

DARN, I hope'd this age old riddle would last just a bit longer than a few minuts, though what can I expect from such an old one. ha.

I just wish that some people who never heard it would have gotten to actually try it.

Some people are thinking that I didn't know the answer. I knew the answer, but wanted to share it with people who might find it interesting

Answer 1

A-B = 0. You CAN'T divide by 0, and yet you divide by A - B. Thus your entire proof is false.

Answer 2

A=B if A=B
then A - B = 0
this is part of your equation:

A=B A^2=AB < multiply both sides by A
A^2-B^2=AB-B^2 (A+B)(A-B)=B(A-B) ---------------------------- < _Divide by (A-B) (??????) (Error)
it's the worst equation........
try some mathematical computer program to proved your equation...
I'm sure 100 % the iteration will not stop n never until u die

Answer 3

you divided by A-B, but A-B = 0. So this falsifies your "proof"
2+2 = 4, except in base three = 11, and base four =10

Answer 4

Hey there!

The error occurs when you divide a-b on both sides of the equation. Since a=b, you can substitute b for a. In other words, when you mean you are dividing a-b on both sides of the equation, then you're dividing b-b on both sides of the equation or dividing both sides of the equation by 0.

Hope it helps!

Answer 5

Try this one.

1.4 = 2 if you round off.

1.4 +1.4 = 2.8 = 3 if you round off.

Another words: "Two plus Two equals five for sufficiently large values of two." This is just your equation in an increasing form. When you put in the < or > signs then you are dealing with values of 2 that are other than 2. The question then depends on the significant number of digits and how you round it off.

Answer 6

"A=B" + "divide by (A-B)" = 2 points

Answer 7

When you divide by A-B, you're dividing by zero, which is illegal.

Answer 8

binary numbers. ma ten points

Answer 9
