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?

Here's an easy way to understand the ERROR in the calculations:
1 dollar = 100 cents = 10 coins * 10 cents = 10 coins * 1/10 dollar = 1 dollar

Hence the the FLAW in the original calculation was using CENTS for both the 10s
