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?

duh! say Xs and Os are any sort of unit.
one X = one hundred O's. divide both sides of the equation by one hundred.
1/100 X = one O.thats just what the problem says. 1 dollar = 100 cents. 1/100 dollar = 1 cent. the middle stuff is just to fool you.
