    Let read this : 1=1 a=a a²=a² a²-a²=a²-a² a(a-a)=(a+a)(a-a) a=a+a a(1)=a(1+1) 1=1+1 1=2 Where is the error ?

        The error is in your lack of understanding what this Forum is for and so posting an utterly inappropriate message.

          Here:

          a(a-a)=(a+a)(a-a)
          a=a+a

          Division by zero in the intermediate step.

            There is no error! 1 is indeed equal to 2 for very large value of 1! I think this is what just happened to you! :rolleyes: :-D

                          I bet he hasn't looked behind the fridge; it's the last place anyone ever looks. Which (by definition) is where you always find what you are looking for, if you are going to. So...you should always start looking behind the fridge, and then give up.

                                        Well, all the swear words for starters! Can't you see them? It may be your local government filtering the internet for you...:~
