Re: [Math4u] A Proof

That proof is incorrect. (10c)^2 = 100 c^2 which is not equal to 100 c.

Subject: [Math4u] A Proof

Speaking of evaluating a formula, we can prove that 1$ = 1c.

1$ = 100c
= (10c)^2
= (0.1$)^2
= 0.01$
= 1c

We all know that the dollar has been losing some of its value recently,
but this much?
What has gone wrong?
