Question

why 1/0 is undefined
prove it

Answer 1

1/0 = infinite
so,
1= 0* infinite
1/infinite = 0

why?
it is not calculated ,

1/1 =1
1/10= 0.1
1/100=0.01
1/1000 =0.001
1/10000=0.0001
1/100000= 0.00001
1/1000000=0.000001
1/10000000=0.00000 01...

.......

so we can' t calculate it

hope it helps..

Answer 2

Came across a very interesting question .

Why 1/0 is undefined ?

Okie ^_^

Let us say that 1/0 is defined .
Then we can say that 1/0 is equal to some variable .
Isn't it ? :)

Let us say that the variable is x .

So now comes the action :

1/0 = x
Well if you work a little harder , you can get this :

1 = x X 0

x multiplied by zero will always be 0 for any value of x.
But here we find it is equal to 1 O_o

This means that variable x does the trick here.
x has to be undefined because we do not have any specific definition for a number which if multiplied by 0 gives 1 .

Hope you understand !
