One equals two

Ever wondered why you always end up with one odd sock after you wash them? well, maybe science has the answer.

First off we let a = b.
a   =   b

Next We multiply both sides by a
a2   =   ab

Next We can add a2 to both sides
2a2   =   a2 + ab

Next We can subtract 2ab from both sides
2a2 - 2ab   =   a2 - ab

We can simplify this with factorisation
2 (a2 - ab)   =   a2 - ab

Dividing both sides by (a2 – ab)
2   =   1
