(a) if 1/0 = infinite., then (0*infinite) must be 1 .....right....
(b) but we all know that (something*0) =0......so how my first query (a) is possible ??????
Have you ever think about it ???

1) becoz if 1 is divided zero,then zero should multiply with any number to get the answer as 1 but it multiplies with every and gets zero so it is not possible so instead mathematicians tell it as infinite or undefined

Well , you got something wrong interpreted there. First of all, the number system in which we work doesn't allows the arithmetic you are trying to do in part (a), since there is no value for ∞ (infinity), you can't multiply it with a number, NEITHER WITH 0, and hence, you can't achieve the conclusion of '0*∞=1'.
In normal arithmetic we perform, we would need a value for our variable (
'∞' in this case) to successfully satisfy the equation thus formed. So, the maths we study doesn't allows this kind of arithmetic.
Don't forget ∞ isn't a number, it is an existence.
Hope this helps.
I'll debate more on this topic if anybody's willing.
Got any problem? You have the comment section.

prakhargupta3301:
and ∞*1=∞ yes perhaps that's possible. it could be like 0.
when we multiply any no. by 0 we get 0
but we arent sure if we'll get a number when we multiply ∞ by any number
remember that ∞ is an alien for us in this situation
this is like asking what will happen is an alien and human mate
satisfied?
am not telling that you are wrong. But you can't compare "∞" with "0"
if like that , then probably the number line might have started with "∞", instead of "0"
just make yourself clear that "0" has some value, we can see it, can feel it. But for "∞" we assume it as the greatest number in number line.....which is out of my imaginations.
so don't tell like that "it could be like 0"...@as you have mentioned
