Zero is nothing, null, zip, {ø}, 0/x. The concept is pretty easy, there's either something, or nothing (0)...or perhaps a probabilistic oscillation between the two states. Anyways...

Infinity is definitely a hard concept, especially since you can't conceive it. No matter what you think about in order to try and conceptualize the vastness of infinity, you can always think of something even more vast. I like to think of it like this: If there is a finite probability that an event can occur, then no matter how small the probability of that event occurring is, that event will, not may, but will occur, with a 100% chance, as long as it is given an infinite amount of time to happen.

What is the result of dividing a number by zero?

You can not divide by zero - it is not defined. Presumably you get infinity, but there are different types of infinity.


What is zero times infinity?

In mathematics, the expression "zero times infinity" is considered an indeterminate form, meaning it does not have a definitive value. This is because the product of zero and any finite number is zero, but the product of zero and an infinitely large number could potentially approach a non-zero value. In different contexts and mathematical systems, the result of zero times infinity may vary or be undefined.


Does infinity have a limit?

No. That is why it is called "infinity". Infinity is actually not an accepted numerical value in calculus. It is rather a concept. For instance, (infinity) - 1 googleplex = infinity


What is zero raised to the power of infinity?

It remains as zero


What is the number after infinity?

Infinity is as big as you can get, so there is no number after it.There is also a "negative infinity" going the other way, so the total number of integers could be considered as two infinity (2 x ∞), or two ∞ plus 1 if you include zero. But usually infinity is defined to include the entire set of integers.* * * * *Except that infinity plus infinity, or even infinity times infinity is still infinity. However, infinity to the power of infinity is a higher level of infinity (Aleph1 rather than Aleph0). And if that does not do your head in, there is a lot more to the mathematics of infinities.

Any number divided by infinity?

Infinity is more a concept than a number. But the answer would be a number that is so infinitesimally small as to basically equal zero.


What is infinity divided by pi?

Impossible to answer ! Infinity is a never ending quantity - and Pi is a never ending decimal !


What is the farther integer from zero is?

The farther integer from zero is negative infinity. In the set of integers, there is no specific "farthest" integer as the integers extend infinitely in both positive and negative directions from zero. However, if we consider the concept of infinity, negative infinity would be considered farther from zero than positive infinity.


Is infinity zero?

Infinity cannot, by definition, be a defined number such as zero.


When was Zero to Infinity created?

Zero to Infinity was created in 1999-09.


Why is the concept of zero and infinity so important to us?

Zero is important because it gives us the concept of having nothing and there being void this is used for purposes with math and real life in how we view things. Infinity goes on and on forever providing a concept that time does not end or a feeling of eternity which is hard to grasp. But if time did have an end and things just stopped, that would be equally as hard to think about.


What is infinity into zero?

Infinity into zero = Log 2 = 0.692 by L'hospital Rule


What is the value of zero times infinity?

Zero times infinity is defined as "indeterminate".


What is the limit of infinity over zero?

infinity? Infinity over zero is undefined, or complex infinity depending on numbers you are including in your number system.


What is zero minus infinity?

minus infinity


Why is zero times infinity undefined?

Because zero multiplied by any number is always zero, but anything multiplied by infinity is infinity. Zero times infinity is being pulled both ways. Also, the definition of infinity is any number x divided by 0. When you multiply zero by infinity, the zeroes "cancel out", leaving absolutely nothing behind.


Why is infinity minus infinity not zero?

Infinity is a sophisticated mathematical concept and there are highly evolved rules for manipulating quantities with are or which can become infinite.In the absence of a context, simple questions such as "infinity minus infinity" can not be answered. In mathematical and physical situations where such questions arise, there is normally a completely rational and prescriptive way to arriving at an answer.
