a=b times both sides by a, theyre still equal
a^2=ab how about we - both sides by b^2
a^2-b^2=ab-b^2 Facter!!!!
(a+b)(a-b)=b(a-b) lets cross out those a-b's now
theyre on each side so why not
a+b=b
So then, does 2 really equal 1???
everything is mathamaticly correct with this
Answer: The problem is when i canceled the a-b's
to do that i would have had to divide both sides by a-b
