1 / -∞ = 0.

As the denominator (with any fraction, where the numerator is not ∞) gets larger and larger, the ratio becomes smaller and smaller. Therefore, as our denominator approaches infinity (whether it be negative or positive), our ratio tends to zero.

What is 1 divided by infinity?

When we divide 1 by infinity, we are essentially taking the limit of 1 as the denominator approaches infinity. In mathematics, this limit is equal to zero. This is because as the denominator becomes infinitely large, the value of the fraction approaches zero. Therefore, 1 divided by infinity equals 0.

What is infinity divided by 5?

Infinity divided by any finite number is infinity. Here are the rules: 1. Infinity divided by a finite number is infinite (I / f = I); 2. Any finite number divided by infinity is a number infinitesimally larger than, but never equal to, zero (f / I = 1 / I); 3. Infinity divided by infinity is one (I / I = 1), or in fact any other positive number (I / I = and so on...); 4. Infinity multiplied by zero (no infinity) is zero (I * 0 = 0); 5. Infinity divided by a positive finite number is infinity (I / +f = I); 6. Infinity divided by a negative finite number is minus infinity (I / -f = -I); 7. Infinity divided by zero is not possible; 8. Infinity plus infinity is infinity (I + I = I); 9. Zero divided by infinity (nothing divided into infinity) equals zero (0 / I = 0); 10. Infinity plus a finite number is infinity (I + f = I); 11. Infinity minus a finite number is infinity (I - f = I); but 12. Infinity minus infinity, due to the nature of infinity, can be zero, infinity, or minus infinity (I - I = -I, 0, I).

What is the smallest negative integers?

The set of negative integers is {-1, -2, -3, ...}. The greatest negative integer is -1. From there the numbers progress toward negative infinity. There are an infinite number of negative integers as they approach negative infinity. So there is no smallest negative integer. -1


What is the value of infinite?

1 time infinity equals infinity. Infinite divided by infinite equals 1. There's your answer. * * * * * Except that it is not true. 1 times infinity is, indeed, infinity. But infinity divided by infinity need not be 1. See for example, the paradox of Hibert's Hotel at the attached link.
