    Assuming you have posted all the info you have then I would suggest you have more info thn you need.

    You want to go from b+c to a+c but the first line tells you a=b so just substitute a for b and voila!

    Not sure if this make sense, but here goes.

    if A=B<C isn't this saying A= B less then C not B+C.
    if so would B= A greater than C. B=A>C

    heres my interpretation...

    this looks like a formula for self consciousness itself , how to get something to realise itself without simply assuming the latter, the answer is indeed 0 or placing no value on anything

    its trick question because the answer is the question- ing itself or the process which of course leads to self realisation ,

    did it work ?
