  5. There is no missing $1.
    When you paid back $2, you only owed $98.
    The "your $1" is part of the $98 you still owe.
    Cute, but flawed.

    Try this one:
    A proof that 2=1
    Let r = s
    multiply each side by r
    r^2 = rs [that ^2 is an exponent; r squared]
    subtract s^2 from each side
    r^2 - s^2 = rs - s^2
    factor
    (r+s)(r-s) = s(r-s)
    divide both sides by r-s
    r+s = s
    substitute s for r (remember r+s)
    s + s = s
    2s = s
    divide both sides by s
    2 = 1

    What's wrong with this "proof"?
    Answer when school gets out this afternoon.

  9. He owes them $97 for the shirt- 48.50 Each

    Gave them back $2- $1 each
