om...
Can you use ones [1's] indescriminately in algebra? If not why

Yes, of course. For example, start with: a + b = c, then we can put
in as many ones as we like: a + b + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 ... = c. You can be
as indiscriminate as you like with the ones, and you'll be as right as
you always are.
Please, tell me that this was a joke...

The first two sentences are sarcastic in the extreme. The third is an
accurate statement (when applied to the OP).
Perhaps you need to boost the sensitivity of your sarcasm meter.
