If 2+2 = 5, then I'm Qin Shi Huang.

Proof:
2+2=5
Minus 2, we get 2=3.
Minus 1, we get 1=2.
Thus, two people equals one person.
According to this conclusion, because Qin Shi Huang and I are two different people, I and Qin Shi Huang are the same person.
Therefore, I am Qin Shi Huang himself.

But obviously, 2 plus 2 does not equal 5. So my proof makes no sense.

You sure?

0 = 0

20 - 20 = 25 - 25

4x5 - 4x5 = 5x5 - 5x5

4 (5-5) = 5 (5-5)

Therefore, 4 = 5

2+2 = 5 :)

Don't forget to calculate things in parentheses first. You can only prove that 0 = 0.

It’s 5 because I said so, hope this helps!

It's 4 because if 2+2=5 then we're using base-nine system since 4 is a non-existent number.

4 literally exists in base-9. Please go outside and touch some grass lmao

But you're using a novembary system consisting of 012356789.
