Is There Any Mathematician Who Can Explain This?? by Deboxoxo(m): 9:31pm On Mar 25, 2016
It is known that if you divide element of the same identity u get one(1) except wen divided by 0...Thus, a/a=1,1/1=1 but a/0=undefine or infinite nd 0/0=undefine or infinite.

What will be the value of infinite/infinite??
Also proof ur ansa cos no answer is perfectly correct unless it is backed up with proof-==>DEBO<==

Infinite cos zero has no value. U can't divide nothing over nothing

I will start from the later part of the question infinite/infinite=1
Proof: infinite = 1/0 hence infinite/infinite = (1/0)/(1/0)= 1/0 × 0/1 = 1
And the first part 0/0=¿
Proof: (0/1)/(0/1)= 0/1 × 1/0 = 0/1 × infinity = undefine

Capisce

@op do you believe in GOD? If yes, how powerful is GOD?. Again, try mixing a tap water with borehole water, wen u re done, tel me wat the ratio of wat tap water to borehole water is. Dnt cum here n start askin unnecessary question. Can you count d nos of hair strands in your head?

you cannot do 0/0 and infinity/infinity directly - you have to take limits:

The limit as a tends to zero of a/a = 1. Likewise the limit as a tends to infinity of a/a =1.

That's the best anyone can do. cool

Infinity/infinity= infinite My math lecturer taught me that in maths 304. Real analysis.

there's just no sense in this question. . logically 0/0 =0 anything, whether a, or tita divide by 0 is 0

Are you this dumb ? I mean even if you have opposing position you share it, but rather you decided to show how daft you are.

cool absolute rubbish - teta divided by zero is infinity. Don't be stupid.

If infinity=a/0. For a=1,2,3,4,... Then infinity/infinity = (a/0)/(a/0) = (a/0)*(0/a)= (a*0)/(a*0)=0/0= undefined(indeterminate?)

Infinity is a concept and an idea. It's no necessary a number per say. If you're working with very small numbers like 10^-100, even real number 1 can be used as infinity in this case. You'll understand it better if you see infinity as an idea not a particular number

So infinity/infinity is indeterminate
