0 / 0

[magic fly]

zero divided by zero.
some of you may say that it is undefined.
but i say that anything and everything is the correct answer.
zero can go into zero five times. lets count, 0+0+0+0+0 = 0
how about -3 times? -0-0-0 = 0
you know what this means right?
if i want 0 / 0 to be equal to pizza it will be!
mmm...tasty~

have a try! i guarantee you will or won't be disappointed.

also, this statement is false.

That would, in fact, be the definition of undefined...

Also, if this is true then 1=2

Assume that A=1 and B=1

A+A=B+B
A*A=B*B
B+A=A+B
B*A=A*B
A^2=B^2
A*A=B^2
2A=B^2
2*1=1^2
2=1

Yes this works. If you don't believe me then its too late, its already a mathematical fact

Umm, that doesn't actually work, you can't have two different equations and combine the sides like that.

1^2=1

2*1=2

as such, the statement 2*1=1^2 is not true.

and all the As and Bs were probably there just to make it look confusing.
and when you said
"Also, if this is true then 1=2"
0/0 = everything has little or nothing to do with the puny statement 1=2
0/0 = everything is on a much grander scale. the biggest reason being that it isn't constrained to any single number like your 1=2.
Not even y=(x+1)/1*x can compare.

X/0 is totally relevant to 1=2
1*0=0
2*0=0
1*0=2*0
divide equations by 0 to cancel *0
1=2

all that that does is start at two and exponentially decrease, eventually approaching 1. As such, It is easier to show it as y=-2^x+1 if I'm not mistaken.

[Mr.Onion]

y=sin(x)/x is continous at x=0, even though it isn't defined there.

In this thread: People abuse Maths and think they are smart.

Incidently Megadog's proof is error. Between:

1*0 = 2*0

and

"1=2"

He forgot

(1*0)/0 = (2*0)/0, which what you are doing. Ergo, the equation becomes undefinded.

Furthermore, any non-zero value, when divided by zero, becomes infinity. A funny result of this is that travelling at light speed would cause infinite time dilation. Which I think would stop the resulting infinite mass and therefore gravity from destroying everything.

[Mr.Onion]

More importantly, the energy content of the universe is finite, so infinite gravity is impossible.

Actually, I knew that, I was making a point as to WHY 1=2 was relevant to dividing by 0, as this is a common false proof.

It's Total Mayhem, brah. You can be concerned in General Blabber.

Okay, yeah, I admit you're right about this. It's happened a couple of times, but in general Gorilla Glue works just fine to stick everything back together.

[Megadog]

Abusing maths is not OK, it really hurts it. I've seen math covered in bruises from being abused too much.

[Boneheads1999]

Oh man, mah bro just called me and said I can't come to teh big game.
wanna know why?
Because
people were abusing maths D:

Wait... Magic fly made the thread, but...
