Question:
Prove from first principle that WOMAN = PROBLEMS using the following TRUE
statements;
1. To get a WOMAN you need TIME and MONEY
2. TIME is MONEY
3. MONEY is the root of all PROBLEMS

Solution:
From statement 1, that “To get a WOMAN you need TIME and MONEY”
Let,
WOMAN = W
TIME = T
MONEY = M

⇒ W=TxM
Therefore; W = TM - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - Equation
(i)
From statement 2, that “TIME is MONEY”

⇒ T= M - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Equation (ii)
Substituting the value of T from Equation (ii) in to Equation (i),

W=MxM
⇒ W = M2 - - - - -- - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Equation (iii)
From statement 3, that “MONEY is the root of all PROBLEMS”;
Let,
PROBLEMS = P

M = P - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Equation (iv)

But from Equation (iii);

W = M2
Making M the subject of the formula;

W = M2

⇒ M = W - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Equation (v)

Combining Equation (iv) and Equation (v);

⇒ M = P = W

⇒ ( P )2 = ( W )2
P=W

Therefore; W = P

WOMAN = PROBLOEMS (Hence proved).
