the answer is something that holds true for no other number. In case it bears stating.

proof that one equals two:

assume a=1 and b=1

a=b

multiply by a

a^2 =b*a

subtract b^2

a^2 - b^2 = a*b - b^2

factor

(a+b) * (a-b) = b * (a-b)

divide by (a-b)

a+b = b

replace

1+1 =1

add

2=1



now since we all know that 2 does not equal one, where is the fault in the equation?

I was wondering if any of you have seen this before. If not, can you figure it out?

by the way a^2 means a squared. likewise with b

It's included in stranger's riddle, a level somewhere in the 20's, if I remember correctly. It was one of the easiest levels.

Division by zero:

"divide by (a-b)" and "a=b" means (a-b)=0
