Find
at which step of the following proof, it becomes
false. And give the reason. |
|
Does
2 = 1 ? |
|
|
|
| 1. |
A
= B |
|
|
Add A to
both sides |
|
2. |
A
+ A = A + B |
| 3. |
2A
= A + B |
|
|
Subtract
2B from both sides |
| 4. |
2A
- 2B = A + B - 2B |
| 5. |
2A
- 2B = A - B |
| 6. |
2(A-B)
= A - B |
|
|
Divide
both sides by (A-B) |
| 7. |
2
= 1 |
|
|
|
| 2
can't equal 1! What's wrong with this problem? |
