prove that

100=6

proof

let a=b

multiply both sides by 94.......94a=94b

(100-6)a=(100-6)b

100a-6a=100b-6b

100a-100b=6a-6b

100(a-b)=6(a-b)

cancel (a-b) on both sides

therefore 100=6 hence proved...

hows that....:cool2::cool2:
How did you manage to pass through +2?

100(a-b)=6(a-b)

cancel (a-b) on both sides

therefore 100=6 hence proved...

dude,you metioned a=b,and you are dividing by a-b (aka 0).

EPIC FAIL :rofl:

Note:

All in good humour alone of course :)

Not all infinite decimal numbers are irrational.
Right. I apologize for my previous statement. Even rational numbers are infinite decimals, recurring infinite decimals.
