And with your crass dishonesty which you appear to be using in your desperate attempts to hide your inability to do simple math.
And yet you steadfastly refuse to answer that simple and easy question, choosing instead to have to endure multiple suspensions

And after having accused me of making errors in my math (your
Message 403 "replying" to my
Message 402), you are still avoiding showing what those "errors" are,
DESPITE MY HAVING SHOWN ALL MY WORK, something that you absolutely refuse to do with YOUR OWN "work".
At the core of your inability to comprehend units is your:

Multiply 5 chickens by 5 chickens = 25 chickens. Divide 5 chickens by 5 chickens = 1 chicken.
That you are using some "alternative maths" (is that like MAGAts' "alternative facts"?) is evidenced by:

Just follow my instructions, and you will get you maths correct, with the right answers. Simples.
So since you have chided us for using normal math instead of
YOUR SPECIAL MATH (even to the point of insisting that if we did it
your way then we'd get your results), in my
Message 402 I used that statement to reconstruct
your special math, or at least some of its identities:

From that we can derive what
YOU think the identities should be:
Hine's Crazy Identities:
a × a = a -- from your Multiply 5 chickens by 5 chickens = 25 chickens
a/a = a -- from your Divide 5 chickens by 5 chickens = 1 chicken.
Insanity! And we know that your
Message 97 was not a typo, because you have stood by that nonsense and doubled down on the insanity.
That's why we keep asking you to show your work with units, because everything you've presented so far reeks of
innumeracy (mathematical illiteracy).
And then I applied both normal math and your personal insanity to solve a simple rate-time-distance problem
with emphasis on how the units are handled:

Solve for distance: d = rt, "distance equals rate times time", "dist/time × time = dist"
As per OUR math:
Evaluate
60 mi/hr × 1.5 hours = 60×1.5 (mi/hr)(hr) → 90 (mi)(hr/hr)
hours cancel out (hr/hr = 1) -- as per the identity: a/a = 1
∴ 60 mi/hr × 1.5 hours evaluates to 90 miles
QED
As per YOUR math:
Evaluate
60 mi/hr × 1.5 hours = 60×1.5 (mi/hr)(hr) → 90 (mi)(hr/hr)
hours get messed up (hr/hr = hr) -- as per YOUR identity: a/a = a
90 (mi)(hr/hr) → 90 (mi)(hr)
∴ in your special private universe, 60 mi/hr × 1.5 hours evaluates to 90 mile-hours
FUBAR (Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition)
Distance is supposed to be in units of distance, like MILES. Just what the fuck are YOUR MILE-HOURS supposed to mean?

We just used your "maths" and got nonsense results. Your assertion is demonstrably false. Idiot!
Our mathematics works, whereas YOUR alternative mathematics does NOT work and isn't worth spit.
To that, you "replied":
To which I replied:
dwise1 writes in Message 407:
Are you claiming that I got something wrong? OK,
so prove it!
Unlike you, I presented my math and my calculations
and showed every step of my calculations. It should therefore be very simple for you to point out where you think I had gone wrong.
Go ahead, show us where I had gone wrong! And it's not like I'm trying to rush you or anything, since
YOU HAVE AN ENTIRE WEEK TO DO IT!
Go ahead. Please, please, please!
Oh, and at the same time, explain to us why
YOUR math is right. Though that would just be icing on the cake -- we would be thrilled with just the first part of the challenge: show us where my math is wrong.
{ section in which I repost my Message 402, parts of which are reposted above in this message }
There it is. Show us where
OUR math is wrong but yours is supposedly right.
SHOW US!
And, of course, you just ran away
AGAIN in stark terror.
You know full well what you need to do, so just be a man and
do it, instead of being a whimpering wanker.
