OK
..................................a=b
multiply by a...........a^2 = ab
subtract b^2. a^2 - b^2 = ab - b^2
factorize........(a+b)(a-b)=b(a-b)
cancel a-b................a+b=b
since a = b............b + b = b
................................2b = b
cancel b......................2 = 1.
therefore all you 50% people can give me $2 and I'll give you $1 back, cos its the same thing, I just proved it to you.

That is good maths and I love good maths. But don't waste your time, just say 1=2?

So many zeros - my brain hurts.
By the way - why are you trying to factorise zero for anyway? (ab-b^2=0) because a=b and a^2 = ab then ab also = b^2
