This reminds me of the proof that 1 = 2

but the above proof shows that (study – fail = 0) and as you cannot divide by 0, your proof stands false and that will make this statement of mine true again ๐
He's not using proper form. If he treats these as binary operations, how can he divide out by Study with the other term being (1+No)?
Otherwise, he's treating the No as a multiplication operation, which is not logically valid.
Additionally, if this were a valid argument (which it isn't), then it would merely prove that our presupposition that no study=fail or study=no fail is false to begin with, to which it is, in essence false!

The wall at least prove that “no study = fail”
