Handy money maker!

I hope you all know your mathematics. As a reminder if you multiply 0.1 by itself you will get 0.01 Okay? Check it on your calculator to see that I'm right.

Also, 10 cents equals 0.1$

Now for the handy money maker:

1$ = 100cents

= 10 x 10 cents

= 0.1$ x 0.1$

= 0.01$

= 1 cent

Hey presto! 1$ = 1cent

Oops, too bad that 10 x 10 cents can't be rewritten to 0.1$ x 0.1$ because there is no cent in the first 10. So, 10 x 10 cents will be 10 x 0.1$.
