Answer / ganapa
Say a=1 and b=1
Now a*a=a*b
a*a - b*b = a*b - b*b
a^2 - b^2 = b(a-b)
(a+b)(a-b) = b(a-b)
a+b = b
1+1 = 1

Answer / rajesh
the above method is true only when the divisor is non zero.
so the problem is absurd.
(a+b)(a-b)=b (a-b)
we can not divide (a-b) on both sides since it is zero
that is why we cannot obtain a+b=b
i hope anyone can understand what i am trying..right??

In the middle of the confounded desert, there is the lost city of "Ash". To reach it, I will have to travel overland by foot from the coast. On a trek like this, each person can only carry enough rations for five days and the farthest we can travel in one day is 30 miles. Also, the city is 120 miles from the starting point. What I am trying to figure out is the fewest number of persons, including myself, that I will need in our Group so that I can reach the city, stay overnight, and then return to the coast without running out of supplies. How many persons (including myself) will I need to accomplish this mission?
