Yay math humor!
With the following assumptions:
0 x 1 = 0
0 x 2 = 0
The following must be true:
0 x 1 = 0 x 2
Dividing by zero gives:
0/0 x 1 = 0/0 x 2
Simplified, yields:
1 = 2

Yes, but you can't divide by zero. Even when the numerator is zero.Let's try another one:
Yay math humor!
With the following assumptions:
0 x 1 = 0
0 x 2 = 0
The following must be true:
0 x 1 = 0 x 2
Dividing by zero gives:
0/0 x 1 = 0/0 x 2
Simplified, yields:
1 = 2
This can't happen in real life because if x=y, x-y=0 and you can't divide by zero.x=y
multiply by x:
x^2 = xy
subtract y^2:
x^2 - y^2 = xy - y^2
Factor both sides:
(x+y)(x-y) = y(x-y)
Divide by (x-y):
x+y=y
x=y, so substitue y for x:
y+y=y
2y = y
divide by y and we get:
2=1

Want to hear a dirty Joke.....
the boy fell in the mud
Wasn't a riddle. It was a simple joke that doubled in purpose to also state why we don't divide by 0.Let's try another one:

Oy, this is a joke thread ... not a maths riddle thread
Glad somebody got it (Fredil, i'm looking at you 0.o). Jk, Fredil.As I lay in bed, staring up at the stars, I thought to myself: "Where the heck is the ceiling?".
