  1. What is infinity divided by infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 11, 2012 · I know that $\infty/\infty$ is not generally defined. However, if we have 2 equal infinities divided by each other, would it be 1? if we have an infinity divided by another half-as-big infinity, for

  2. One divided by Infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Similarly, the reals and the complex numbers each exclude infinity, so arithmetic isn't defined for it. You can extend those sets to include infinity - but then you have to extend the definition of the arithmetic …

  3. What exactly is infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Definition: Infinity refers to something without any limit, and is a concept relevant in a number of fields, predominantly mathematics and physics. The English word infinity derives from Latin infinitas, which …

  4. I have learned that 1/0 is infinity, why isn't it minus infinity?

    This obviously makes no sense - we say that 0 / 0 is "undefined" because there isn't really an answer. Likewise, 1 / 0 is not really infinity. Infinity isn't actually a number, it's more of a concept. If you think …

  5. definition - Is infinity a number? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    For infinity, that doesn't work; under any reasonable interpretation, $1+\infty=2+\infty$, but $1\ne2$. So while for some purposes it is useful to treat infinity as if it were a number, it is important to remember …

  6. How many different sizes of infinity are there?

    24 It's pretty straightforward to say that there is an infinite number of different sizes of infinity, but then I thought, "What size of infinity is that?" My thoughts are that the number of unique cardinalities is …

  7. What is zero times infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    If any number times zero is zero and any number time infinity is infinity, then what do you get when you multiply zero times infinity? Do they cancel one another out and equal any number since any ...

  8. Why is $\infty\times 0$ indeterminate? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    In particular, infinity is the same thing as "1 over 0", so "zero times infinity" is the same thing as "zero over zero", which is an indeterminate form. Your title says something else than "infinity times zero". It …

  10. infinity - Are all infinities equal? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    A friend of mine was trying to explain to me how all infinities are equal. For example, they were saying that there are the same amount of numbers between $0$–$1$ as there are between $0$–$2$. The...
