I exercise caution when someone with a better grasp of mathematics than I poses a seemingly innocuous question such as this ... what's the catch?

3. That's actually the first math question you ever asked on MHF Prove It
But I would think you could work it out by yourself? What's wrong?

I'm demonstrating MHF at a conference.
You've just shown how quickly you can get a reply, thanks
