Yup, that's the correct answer. (a - n - d) = 0 and by cancelling that out on both sides, you have to divide both sides by (a - n - d), i.e. zero. However, we know that dividing anything by zero gives us infinity. Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a winner!

Coz the 1st line says a=n+d so (a-n-d)=0.... then a(a-n-d)=n(a-n-d) doesn't give any info at all lor... =) hmm…i just decided to explore gege’s friends blogs….quite a few interesting ones (including yours)

But if I was back in JC/sec a standard ans, I would put a condition in the 2nd line, (a-n) cannot = 0. then the last line, a = n, would not stand. Then I would add, if you should substitue all a's for (n + d) and not just partially. And then you are just evaluating one side of the equation, expanding it and eliminating variables. haha... ok, I'm probably off haha. Tell us the answer if no one else tries to guess.

How did you find it? :-D Anyway, you are 50% correct, i.e. you cannot multiply both sides with 0. However, you cannot immediately assume that (a - n) = 0 from the 2nd line. Look further down. :-P Tigerming: Oh actually I figured out she was your sis coz she has a blog too and your parent’s pics are on it! :-D

The "-ad" was brought over to the left hand side of the equation. Try again! :P Hehe… wrong answer! The “-ad” was brought over to the left hand side of the equation. Try again! :P
