Proof that 2 and 2 make 5

[edit]
  • Let a and b be equal non-zero quantities
  • Multiply through by a
  • Subtract
  • Factor both sides
  • Divide out [this is the point where the theorem is wrong]
  • Observing that
  • Combine like terms on the left
  • Divide by the non-zero b
  • Add 3 to each side

You know it's true (as long as you don't have any qualms against division by zero, and I hear Jimbo doesn't).
