The answer is,

Let us assume,
a=b
94a=94b
(100-6)a=(100-6)b
100a-6a=100b-6b
100a-100b=6a-6b
100(a-b)=6(a-b)
100=6 !!!!!!!!!

I too could not believe it at first and still i am sceptical about it.

No, the answer is the assumption itself, a=b :p

Since a=b so a-b=0

So you can't cancell out (a-b) from both sides or say you can't divide both sides by zero because anything divided by zero is undefined.

So 100 can't be equal to 6.

Nope
110 = 6 :D

For a moment I though you were talking of binary.

After all:
There are 10 types of people in the world, those who can read binary or those you cannot.
