prove it

Firstly
1/0 ≠ ∞
it's just half truth!
Easy proof -––»
what is division?
well that's not topic so I won't define it!
a/b =c
a÷b=c
here we call a as dividend
b as divisor
c as quotient
so,
multiplying both sides by divisor {b}
a=cb
let's put values!
I'll prove it generally cause why do special when u can go for general {relativity☺}
taking :----»
a=a≠0
b=0 {as per question}
c= ?
a=0c
a=0
this leads to contradiction so it's undefined.. other way of looking.. there exists no no. real nor imaginary {hoping you don't know bout them but it doesn't matter} which when multiplied with 0 gives any other no. then itself zero {zero's the gangsta!!}
this way you can prove x/0= N.D {not defined} except for when x=0 {as per I know}
OTHER METHOD

It's topic of class 11 {NOT NECESSARILY TO BE STUDIED IN CLASS 11} so I'll explain briefly
we have to find x/0
so let's find {take no. near to zero}
x/0.001 =1000x
x/0.000001 =1000000x
x/0.0000000001 = 10000000000x
heya where's this going
–––» it's getting bigger and APPROACHING ∞
WHAT IF WE TOOK IT FROM THE NEGATIVE SIDE? ¿
IT'LL APPROACH -∞
as we get close to zero the different side give too different results...
AND THERE'S NO CHANCE THAT ∞ = -∞
SO ITS NOT DEFINED
HOPE IT HELPS
