How about this one:
3 men go to a restaurant and the bill comes to £30 so they give the waiter £10 each. The waiter then realises he has overcharged them by £5 so he gives them back £1 each and pockets the other £2 for himself. So: it has cost the 3 men £9 each for the meal (£10 minus the £1 the waiter gave back).

3 x £9 = £27, plus the £2 the waiter kept for himself = £29

What happened to the other £1 ???

This means the total bill came to £25, not £30.

Therefore, each man should have got £1.66 back, which means the extra £1 mentioned in the problem went into the waiter's pocket.

In other words, it should have cost each man £8.33 per meal, but they ended up paying £9 each instead, so the "missing" £1 is already part of the £2 the waiter has kept.

All the best,
Michael

This step makes no sense...

Add 81/4 to both sides: (2+2) 2 (9 X (2+2) + 81/4 = 52) 9 X 5 + 81/4
Rearrange the terms: ({2+2}) 9/2) 2 = (5-9/2) 2
Ergo: 2+2 - 9/2 = 5

Likewise, this last step also makes no sense.

Hi, Thomas,
As soon as you changed the location of the fulcrum of the equation you destroyed all logic. An equation is an equation only when there are two distinct sides. Because you have been very sloppy in your positioning of the fulcrum (=), you have shot your own foot.
Incidentally, 2 + 2 only = 4 if you make the assumption that the value of 2 is constant and the value of 4 is constant. You are in real trouble if the values ever became variable.

but that is the beauty of math not everything in it is logical which is why rules are made to find the solution to where before there wasnt one

Mary went shopping for 4lbs of apples. She could only find two shops with apples left and each only had 2lbs. The first shop was selling apples at $1 per lb and the other was selling them for $1.50 per lb. Mary bought 4 lbs of apples.
So 2 (lbs @ $1) + 2 (lbs @ $1.50) = $5

Yes, but that doesn't prove that 2 + 2 = 5. That shows that 2 + 3 = 5. (2 x 1) +
(2 x 1.5) = 2 + 3 = 5

Proof that 2+2=5(just thought of it)
You have TWO Eyes
Close your right eye. You have one field of vision.
Close your left eye to perceive the other field of vision
Open them both for the whole vision 2+2=5
2 eyes plus 2 halves of 1 whole field of vision equals 5

That's not including what you can't see. So if our eyes only perceive 10% of the data our brain sends it then each eye is only ever working at 2.5% proficiency while the other is closed. That's assuming of course that proficiency isn't increased when the eyes are closed. So 5 equals 50, but it could equal 50 million with eyes closed, mind open. there's just a hell of a lot more ones.

1+1=3 Right brain, Left brain, Whole Brain, No Brain?

Zero equals not none, but is a lesser form of one.
Proof? 1 times any number is itself...0 times any number is 0(i.e. itself)
0 is not a number, but when multiplied by one it is already itself.

I'm supposed to believe that 0 does not fit in the Fibonacci Sequence, yet still believe that nothing exists? I wonder if there are any other places in the universe where nothing=something??? Hmmm... I wonder. Answers lead to questions which lead to numbers which lead to words which all boil down to the number 4

LET ME SEE NOW, OH YES UHUMM,....

Knowing what a proof is, is the first step in answering this question. From what I am familiar with...

A proof is: a set of logical steps acquired through deductive (therefore, not making any giant leaps in logic, unless by definition), and hence, empirically (from the evidence provided) resulting in a direct equivalence (being, among other types of equivalence, but primarily, in permutation, multiplicative/additively & negatively/positively & even/odd... meta-mathematically) of states, that's shortest distance is (in absolute terms), either infinity, zero, and/or, also, one.

Really, the attempted 'proof' of 2 + 2 = 5 is based on a distorted type of Trigonometry, which was in essence the source of today's Calculus (just try to draw Tangent or Secant without running into the idea of Calculus' derivative & integral, respectively), and actually is the result of any additive equavalence of any two numbers' to being alike to any number, (because measuring hypotenuse of a given sides is essentially multiplicative, hence partially irrational).

(Which makes me wonder... is there a 2 * 2 = 5 equivalent? and the answer is a resounding, yes! But first the 'proof' as written by Charles Seife.)

Let a & b each be equal to 1. Since a ^ b are equal,

b^2 = ab ...(eq.1)

Since a equals itself, it is obvious that

a^2 = a^2 ...(eq.2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2. This yeilds

(a^2) - (b^2) = (a^2)-ab ...(eq. 3)

We can factor both sides of the equation; (a^2)-ab equals a(a-b). Likewise, (a^2)-(b^2) equals (a + b)(a - b) (Nothing fishy is going on here. Ths statement is perfectly true. Plug in numbers and see for yourself!) Substituting into the equation 3 , we get

(a+b)(a-b) = a (a-b) ...(eq.5)

So far, so good. Now divide both sides of the equation by (a-b) and we get

a + b = a ...(eq.5)

b = 0 ...(eq.6)

But we set b to 1 at the very beginning of this proof, so this means that

1 = 0 ...(eq.7)

...Anyways, getting that far gives us the jist of the proof, later in the proof, Charles Seife goes on to prove that Winston Churchill was a carrot! if you want to know how that is possible, I recommend you read the book.

From equation 7, add a number to either side and get it equal to any other number, one greater than itself.

Multiplying equation 7 after adding to it, and one can get: any number is equal to any other number.

Hence, conceptually, any number is equal to zero, and, theoretically, that includes infinity. But that's also the reason why when you divide by zero, it is 'Undefined.' Which, consequentially, is what is happening in this equation... just subsistute 1 into equation 3 and one will see that we are dividing by zero in equation 5.

Or, does it equal just zero point nine repeating?

The rules of arithmetic are the same where WE apply them. However, you need beings that can think and reason to use arithmetic. Most planets and stars do not have such beings, so arithmetic is not even close to universal. But, again, the rules of arithmetic apply everywhere.

Neat stuff to think about.

Does it? I would concede that the curvature of space-time from mass (i.e. Gravity) is universal. So while it may "work" everywhere in the Universe, its presence is not "felt" everywhere (Yes a variant of the "if a tree falls and nobody hears it..." argument). Just like our friend the atom, 99.999999% of the Universe is empty space. On average, matter accounts for less than 1 atom per cubic inch.

And while on the subject of relativity... what if there is a cosmological constant? All signs point to yes... ironically, it is variable. So Einstein's greatest mistake may have been closer than he ever dared dream to this quantum reality we are just beginning to understand.

The "rules" of the arithmetical are indeed universal. If a species somewhere had six digits per hand, chances are they'd use a base-12 numeric system.
But A^2 + B^2 will still equal C^2... unless of course, you are taking a god-awful class in Non-Euclidean Geometry hahahahahahahahaha

Just as if the order of operations were toyed with...
say some alien race decided to add first, then multiply.
That's fine too... so long as they did so consistently, a primer could be crafted to "map" their arithmetic with our own.

No matter the base... no matter the rules.... 2+2 will equal 4... the names may be different (only to protect the innocent).... but after the translation, 4 is... well... 4. These tweaks are syntax choices... the equations would look bizzare... but they'd essentially be the same.

So even though Daryl was incorrect... and you are correct... the path you took to get there was a bit flawed my friend.

  That's not true either... Some 98% of the Universe is occupied, by either dark energy, dark matter, or 'normal' matter. Around 2% of the Universe is truly empty space. Between 'normal' matter and dark matter they make up around 30% of the Universe.

Wow. This was a very fun thread to read. Too bad even those of us with Mathematics degrees couldn't parse the statements. First off, how can one equation loaded with constants equal another equation? This seems like circular logic to me.... however- I have fun with my advanced students with this algebraic gem... 10,000 points to the first person to correctly critique my proof:

In the spirit of this thread (and George Orwell), I will slightly alter my "proof"
Typically, I demonstrate that one equals zero. But, we can pretend we work at the Federal Bureau of Statistics and fudge the numbers by adding a couple steps... we will play with this Euclidean-Style... enjoy

Preamble
1. Let A = Some Real Number
2. Let B = Some Real Number

Supposition
Let A = B

If so, let the games begin.....

1. A = B
2. Add negative B to both sides --> (A - B) = (B - B)
3. Simplify --> (A-B) = 0
4. Divide by the quantity (A-B) --> (A-B)/(A-B) = (0)/(A-B)
5. Simplify --> (A-B)/(A-B) = 1 --> 1 = 0

Since this thread keeps getting re-opened, why not just make it the 'weird math' thread:

Three people check into a hotel room. The bill is $30, so they each pay $10. After they go to the room, the hotel manager realizes that the bill should have only been $25. So he gives $5 to the bellhop and tells him to return the money to the guests. The bellhop notices that $5 can't be split evenly between the three guests, so he keeps $2 for himself and then gives the other $3 to the guests.

Now the guests, with their dollars back, have each paid $9 for a total of $27. And the bellhop has pocketed $2. So there is $27 + $2 = $29 accounted for. But the guests originally paid $30. What happened to the other dollar?

Hey, you guys all sound like Harold Camping. You should market this and you'll make millions. His math is the same way. You can make an equation for anything if you ambiguously choose numbers. It won't work almost everytime, but if you try hard enough, there's an equation that equals everything. For example: It is 19 months until 12/21/12 and the end of the Mayan Calendar. That is 21-2, because the day is the 21st. There are 31 days in December which is the month it is in subtracted from 45 which is 12+21+12 equals 14. And if you add the second digit in each of the dates of 12/21/12 you get 5. 14 + 5 equals 19. 19 months exactly until the end of the world. And if you're wondering about those 4 extra days since we are four days past the 21st, fret not. If you add the first digits in the dates 12/21/12, you get 4 which is the number you have to subtract from 19. 19 months less 4 days to the day of the end of the Mayan Calendar. . . See I did that without much thinking but I bet someone would buy that. LoL.

we can write as

apply the formula i.e (a-b)^2=a^2 -2ab+b^2
so,
(4-9/2)^2 = (5-9/2)^2
or,
4-9/2=5-9/2

Incidentally, 2 + 2 only = 4 if you make the assumption that the value of 2 is constant and the value of 4 is constant. You are in real trouble if the values ever became variable.

quick answer?

Knowing what a proof is, is the first step in answering this question. From what I am familiar with...

A proof is: a set of logical steps acquired through deductive (therefore, not making any giant leaps in logic, unless by definition), and hence, empirically (from the evidence provided) resulting in a direct equivalence (being, among other types of equivalence, but primarily, in permutation, multiplicative/additively & negatively/positively & even/odd... meta-mathematically) of states, that's shortest distance is (in absolute terms), either infinity, zero, and/or, also, one.

Really, the attempted 'proof' of 2 + 2 = 5 is based on a distorted type of Trigonometry, which was in essence the source of today's Calculus (just try to draw Tangent or Secant without running into the idea of Calculus' derivative & integral, respectively), and actually is the result of any additive equavalence of any two numbers' to being alike to any number, (because measuring hypotenuse of a given sides is essentially multiplicative, hence partially irrational).

(Which makes me wonder... is there a 2 * 2 = 5 equivalent? and the answer is a resounding, yes! But first the 'proof' as written by Charles Seife.)

Let a & b each be equal to 1. Since a ^ b are equal,

b^2 = ab ...(eq.1)

Since a equals itself, it is obvious that

a^2 = a^2 ...(eq.2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2. This yeilds

(a^2) - (b^2) = (a^2)-ab ...(eq. 3)

We can factor both sides of the equation; (a^2)-ab equals a(a-b). Likewise, (a^2)-(b^2) equals (a + b)(a - b) (Nothing fishy is going on here. Ths statement is perfectly true. Plug in numbers and see for yourself!) Substituting into the equation 3 , we get

(a+b)(a-b) = a (a-b) ...(eq.5)

So far, so good. Now divide both sides of the equation by (a-b) and we get

a + b = a ...(eq.5)

b = 0 ...(eq.6)

But we set b to 1 at the very beginning of this proof, so this means that

1 = 0 ...(eq.7)

...Anyways, getting that far gives us the jist of the proof, later in the proof, Charles Seife goes on to prove that Winston Churchill was a carrot! if you want to know how that is possible, I recommend you read the book.

From equation 7, add a number to either side and get it equal to any other number, one greater than itself.

Multiplying equation 7 after adding to it, and one can get: any number is equal to any other number.

Hence, conceptually, any number is equal to zero, and, theoretically, that includes infinity. But that's also the reason why when you divide by zero, it is 'Undefined.' Which, consequentially, is what is happening in this equation... just subsistute 1 into equation 3 and one will see that we are dividing by zero in equation 5.

This is what lead to the invention of calculus. Really, from here this segways into Hilbert Space... but that is best left for another entry, hopefully, on the actual subject of quantazation.

That's all I have time for...

THIS PROOF IS BY DEFINITION INCORRECT, but it provides a good tool as of why we define things in mathematics the way we do.

A good question to ask from here would be (based on my previous tangent):

Does 1/3 plus 1/3 plus 1/3 = 1?
Or, does it equal just zero point nine repeating?
