I have taken up to Pre-Calculus, and I can confirm that infinity does pop up a lot (from what I understand, the point of calculus is the ability to do calculations with infinity). Division by zero is UNDEFINED (yes, written exactly like that), which means it is either unsolvable, or you screwed up your math somewhere along the line of equations...

Calculus is more than calculations with infinity, I can assure you. And as for dividing by zero, it is technically unsolvable, but you can still come up with an answer.

WUT?

Yes, I know. It's a handy little thing called limits…

No, every thing dividing by zero is impossible, because it will make paradox, make 1/0= every number
1/0=Error
=
1=Eroor*0
1=0

???

So that mean All numbers are equal to zero???

I think that's no, we can't change / as * for changing direction when we dividing by zero.

All numbers sums does not equal to zero, only some of them. For example subtracting a number by itself.

No, sum a negative number=subtracting a number.

I'll make the example clearer.

Subtracting numbers itself: 6-6=0
See? It works.

Okay. I know.
But 6+-6=0.
Also we are talking about All numbers are equal to zero?

Like 0.0000000000000000... (with infinite zeros... then a 1)
So x / ∞ = 0 is really a false statement as you just proved....

Yah, it is, because the ∞ is a random number.
We set ∞ as Y.

X/Y is not = 0

We set it as 2
X (1) /2=0.5

We set it as 4
X (1) /4=0.25

This will get smaller and smaller, but it will end one time, just know it is not 0,because the ∞ is a random number. A random number=a number, 1/ a number will get a smaller number, but it will never get 0.
