1 dollar = 100 cents = 10 cents * 10 cents = 1/10 dollar * 1/10 dollar = 1/100 dollar = 1 cent

Here is the proof that 1 dollar = 1 cent. Is there an error in my calculations?

to say 10 * 10 is equal to 10/100 * 10/100 just doesn't make sense, Any 8th grader with some eyes coulda picked that one out, thats just like saying 100 = 10/100 * 10/100, when in actuality 10/100 * 10/100 = 1/100. The problem lies in the coversion between "10 cents * 10 cents" --> "1/10 dollar * 1/10 dollar"
