I know 2 equals one. I also know 1 equals zero:

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0

divide by x^2 + 2x + 1 and get:

1 = 0

Thus, if 1 equals 0 and 2 equals 1, then 2 must also equal 0!

No, this is 0 divided by something. Which is still 0. So, technically it's completely OK according to the rules of mathematics, but we still get a wacky result!

Level 23 of the Stranger Riddle, I presume.

Who wants to prove that 3 equals 2, so we can say that 3 equals any value from 0 to 2?

since we've already proven 2 equals 1 just add 1 to each side.

I meant not pron, but apparently I was wrong about that.

They should change the header on that thing to make it plural though.

Well, is it the leaning tower of Pisa?

I'll give a reason if I'm right.

You must give reason before I will tell you if its right or wrong :D
You could be just guessing and then you'd make up a method after I say its right :D

I'll think about it. Does it have something to do with letters from the word above being in the word below?
