First of all, dont read it if you already have a headache :lol:

Let us consider this equation, you can substitude any numbers as long as it satisfies the equation...

A+B=C
Multiply both sides by 3

2A-1A + 2B-1B = 2C-1C
Let us rearrange

A+B-C = 2A+2B-2C
Factorize

1(A+B-C) = 2(A+B-C)
simplify by canceling out

1=2


WOW MIRACLE!!!
1=2!!
Use mathematical induction to further prove 2=3, 3=4 etc etc..
therefore ALL NUMBERS IN THE UNIVERSE IS EQUALLL!!!!!

2A+1A + 2B + 1B = 2C + 1C

2A+A + 2B+B = 2C+C

2A+A + 2B+B - C = 2C
A + 2B+B - C = 2C - 2A
A + B - C = 2C - 2A - 2B

1(A+B-C) = 2(-A-B+C)

Can't cancel as A+B-C does not equal -A-B+C

Flawed ftw.

1(A+B-C) = 2(-A-B+C)


actually...you can factorise out the -1 and make it:

1(A+B-C) = -2(A+B-C)

the formula still holds Smiley

CLUE: the first line is important (A+B=C)

oh crud...wrote 1 line wrong, i edited fixed it...
1 still equals to 2 Smiley

It's a division by zero error.  since A+B=C, A+B-C=0.  Meaning that you would have to divide by 0 to remove the (A+B-C).
