why the 1/0 taken as infinity?

1/0 is not taken as infinity but is undefined .But many a times we take 1/0 as infinity also because if we say,
20/10=2,
20/5=4,
20/4=5,
20/2= 10,
If we observe this pattern, as the divisor becomes less, the quotient increases and now if we take the least value of divisor , the quotient will be of max value i.e. infinity.

Divyankasc: Can u explain me where I am wrong so that I can correct myself
abhinavabhi: when the denometre is smaller then the number became big value....the smallest none negative number is 0 so the number became very big value which is infinity
Divyankasc: I had written the same but my net is not working
Divyankasc: One more thing
Divyankasc: X^2 - x^2 =0. It can be aslo also written as. (x-x)(x+x) = x(x-x). Cut (x-x) from both sides. x+x=x. 2x=x. 2=1.. But 22≠1, How is this possible..
Divyankasc: This is not possible because division by zero is undefined we can cut zero from both sides
Divyankasc: Can't cut*
abhinavabhi: thes is cheating ..because it is the answer which i tells u.when u asked me
Divyankasc: I had written it full earlier but this schist errorbecause of this whatever I had typed went away so I wrote that much only and when I was editing, u colmented
Divyankasc: Commented*

When something is divided by 0 it is taken as infinity because 0 has no value.

Meww: mark as brainliest plzzzzzzzzzzz
abhinavabhi: u too correct but the right answer is other one
Meww: Oh..
Meww: m crct so mark as branliest plzzzz
Meww: If want to prove 1=2. I will multiply 0 on both the sides. So i will get 0=0. Hence proved 1=2. So, you cannot multiply 0 on both sides of equation to get any result. To prove LHS=RHS problems would be pretty easy if we can do so right? That is why, infinity multiplied by 0 is not 1.
