same thing as saying prove that 1+1=1 just different theory

OpenStudy (watchmath):

How do you define 1 and 2 first, then we can talk about the proof :).

OpenStudy (nowhereman):

You should give more context. What axiom system are should you base the proof upon? Is it Peanos? Or is a specific modell given, like a set theoretic one?
