You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Fact 1: A divided by C = A
This fact implies that C=1
----------------------------------
Fact 2: A plus B = A
This fact implies that B=0
--------------------------
Fact 3: ABC = 1
If Fact 1 and 2 are true why is Fact 3 not true?
Since B=0 the product, ABC, must be 0.
and
What are the values of each of the variables in Fact 1 and 2?
C=1, B=0 and A could be any number.
