In my mind, I say division is giving a fixed number of ice-cream to a fixed number of kids. If I have 10 ice-creams, and 5 kids I can give them to, how many ice-creams does one kid get? The answer is 10/5=2. However, if I have 10 ice-creams, but there aren't any kids that I can give them to, how many does one kid get? Well, we can't say zero OR 10, which means such an operation is undefined.
If you divide by 0 it is 0 because say you have 10 cookies if you divided them between 2 people each person gets 5 well we all know that but if you have those 10 cookies to 0 people how many dose each person get well if you have no people to give them to then no one can take them there for each person gets 0 because know people can take them

You get caught in a loop, which is infinite, and I think that is why the logistical conclusion people come to when dividing by zero is infinity.

The best explanation I've seen is when you graph the negative numbers too. You'll see that at zero the y value tends toward both positive and negative infinity at the same time
Getting tired of these kind of comments. The people who made this cool video also had to go through boring math and study pain before being able to distill such knowledge in a video. You can't compare formal education with entertainment videos as if one could replace the other
Another interesting method is to use limits. If you look at a graph of 1/x, you’ll notice that the graph skyrockets up when approaching zero from the right, and plummets down when approaching zero from the left. This is because if we begin to approach zero from the right (or positive) side (by starting a 1 and then to 0.1 and then 0.01...), the answer approaches infinity. But when we approach zero from the left (or negative) side (from -1 to -0.1 to -0.01...) the answer approaches negative infinity. This means that if we were to assign a value to the graph when it reaches zero (yes I know you cannot do this), it would have to equal both positive and negative.
In a sense that is a perfectly valid result. Do mathematicians not know how to use it (I suppose: "yet")? I'm sure they will find a big use for it if not already.
Yes. And if you try to find a solution to y = 8x +1 16x - 2y = -2 And do the math: 16x + -2(8x + 1) = -2 16x + -16x + -2 = -2 0x = -2 - -2 0x = -2 + 2 0x = 0 0x/0 = 0/0 It comes out to: 0/0 = ∞ So the solution is infinitely many. Which, in my logic, proves n/0 = ±∞ Depending if n is -i or i where i is an rational or irrational number.
@@hstochla it can also be a solution of two linear functions. Where there's the same slope and y-intercept. y = -x 7x + 7y = 0 Equations ↑ Steps↓ 7x + 7(-x) = 0 7x - 7x = 0 0x = 0 0x/0 = 0/0 Solution ↓ 0/0 = ∞ There are infinitely many solutions to this problem.
imo i don’t think this is the best way of looking at it as 1/x^2 goes to positive infinity from both the right and left, but you still can’t divide by 0

I always thought that any number divided by 0 would equal 0 because any number times 0 is 0 and if you swapped the numbers around to divide it you'd get 0 ÷ any number is 0

Nothing can equal infinity, because infinity is not a number, but a concept. You can approach infinity, but you can't reach it because it isn't a real number.
When he started talking about what multiplication and division _are,_ I thought he was going to touch on how if 2 x 5 = 10 and 10 ÷ 5 = 2, that means that if you add 2 five times, or have five groups of 2, you have 10, and if you separate 10 into 5 groups, you have 2 in each. So if you want to divide 10 by 0, that would be like saying you want to split 10 things into groups with 0 in them, and how many groups do you have? Or in reverse, how many groups of 0 things would it take to add up to 10? Well, neither one is physically possible.
Physically possible is pretty irrelevant to math, though. That's something for physicists and engineers to worry about. You can define a math where dividing through 0 is possible. You're probably going to have to give up some other features the more common ones have, like the distributive property or multiplicative inverses, and it might not be terribly intuitive. But it is hardly impossible. Dividing by 0 isn't forbidden, it's just not defined in the default math most people learn.
@@Llortnerof R/iamverysmart? Okay, but physicists and engineers _literally use math._ The reason math exists as it does is because of the world we live in. Universal constants in physics and astronomy were designed to allow us to mathematically calculate things we can't or don't have time or resources to study. And the results contribute to real-world projects. How do engineers build structures that can withstand hurricane force wind? Well, they have to calculate certain numbers and dimensions... with math. Force, vector, friction -- they're all real concepts translated into mathematical form in order to quantify them. Math does hold true because we made it that way. Sure, we could make it _not_ that way, but that wouldn't make much sense, literally or figuratively. So I really don't get the point of calling out my post by saying it's only one kind of math. Math is math. There's only one. If you wanted to "define a math" where other things are possible, that would mean changing math. Sure, you could say dividing by zero is possible, but when an apple falls from a tree, you wouldn't be able to calculate how long it takes to reach the ground. Also, when I say "physically possible," that's not the same as saying things are _impossible,_ just that they translate to real-world concepts. The square root of -1 is pretty impossible, but mathematicians still use it because it's useful in complex calculations. That's why there's a differentiation between those so-called "complex" numbers (some of which are real, some of which aren't) and just plain "real" numbers. Those are separate _branches_ of mathematics, if that's what you meant. I'm not really sure.
@@matrixphijr You're still working in the realm of physicists and engineers, not math. Math is an entirely abstract, logical construct completely detached from physical reality. Your physical constants are merely how these things are represented in mathematical terms. They weren't devised so math could be used on them. They are the result of using math to describe these things. Math holds true because it is entirely based on logical conclusions from a set of predefined axioms. Defining a math does not mean "changing math". It means creating a new math. The regular math you're used to still exists besides it. Math is essentially a language. Defining a new math is similar to creating a new dialect. What you're calling "seperate branches" is all first semester university math. By second year a math student will already have dealt with maths way more complex than that and may well have built a simple one themself. And, uh... impossible literally means "not possible". So if you're saying something is not physically possible, you're saying it is physically impossible.
@@Llortnerof It's no wonder you compare it to a language, since you're a master of twisting words. Look, I'm not having an argument about this. You realize you responded to a comment breaking down why 2 x 5 = 10 with a bunch of rambling nonsense about creating a new system of math where you can divide by zero? And frankly, my dude, there's a reason no one's done that already -- actually, two -- because it would have no bearing on reality and therefore no use whatsoever, and honestly, no one cares. To borrow your ideology, it would be like creating a language that no one speaks.
@@matrixphijr All you're showing here is that you have a very limited understanding of math. Everything you're claiming is pointless? Has already been done, often multiple times, and at least once simply to show that it can be done. Including creating new languages nobody speaks. In fact, that's kinda the default for a newly created language since it is new and thus doesn't have any speakers yet. Hasn't stopped people from not only creating a propper grammar for, but also translating Shakespeare into its original Klingon.
Since the time of the ancient Greeks, the philosophical nature of infinity was the subject of many discussions among philosophers. In the 17th century, with the introduction of the infinity symbol[1] and the infinitesimal calculus, mathematicians began to work with infinite series and what some mathematicians (including l'Hôpital and Bernoulli)[2] regarded as infinitely small quantities, but infinity continued to be associated with endless processes.[3] As mathematicians struggled with the foundation of calculus, it remained unclear whether infinity could be considered as a number or magnitude and, if so, how this could be done.[1] At the end of the 19th century, Georg Cantor enlarged the mathematical study of infinity by studying infinite sets and infinite numbers, showing that they can be of various sizes.[1][4] For example, if a line is viewed as the set of all of its points, their infinite number (i.e., the cardinality of the line) is larger than the number of integers.[5] In this usage, infinity is a mathematical concept, and infinite mathematical objects can be studied, manipulated, and used just like any other mathematical object. The mathematical concept of infinity refines and extends the old philosophical concept, in particular by introducing infinitely many different sizes of infinite sets. Among the axioms of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, on which most of modern mathematics can be developed, is the axiom of infinity, which guarantees the existence of infinite sets.[1] The mathematical concept of infinity and the manipulation of infinite sets are used everywhere in mathematics, even in areas such as combinatorics that may seem to have nothing to do with them. For example, Wiles's proof of Fermat's Last Theorem implicitly relies on the existence of very large infinite sets[6] for solving a long-standing problem that is stated in terms of elementary arithmetic. Yes, I copied that off of Wikipedia
I sometimes get a bit of amusement out of testing how various caculators respond to division by 0. Most just say "Error", but my favourite response has to be "MyScript Calculator", which uses hand-drawn symbols as input: The app recognises hand-drawn symbols and translates them to computer-written symbols, but when I write something like "0/0", it autocompletes to "0/(0+?)", as if the calculation is incomplete. Basically, the app just assumes that I'm not done writing the expression, and refuses to give any answer until I do. It makes the app seem so sassy. "Oh, you have a 0 in the denominator? Well, that doesn't make any sense, so you MUST not be finished writing yet. Go ahead and write some more. I'm waiting."
That's because of discrete maths, a computer can't divide by 0 (basically if you have the algorithm will go into an infinite loop, and the quotient will grow larger and larger until it exhausts all available memory and your computer is going to die), so basically it's a way to prevent an error and the destruction of your device haha
Imagine that you have zero cookies and you split them evenly among zero friends. How many cookies does each person get? See? It doesn’t make sense. And Cookie Monster is sad that there are no cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends
The answer to that question is 0. But that is wrong. What you said is 0÷1/5\6 a d that would be 0. However the problem is when 0 is the denominator. Eg 3/4/7÷0=error. Its not 0
Yet the video said 1=2 COULD be possible so what's so implausible about 5=7? Also, say infinity is every number all at once for the sake of argument. Then that means 5= infinity and 7 = infinity which means 5=7 is rather infinity = infinity which makes sense right?
Wrong, there would be a chocolate but... I'll give you an eg. The chocolate has 12 pieces. 12/2 means how mamy people would have 2 pieces or how mamy "2" you need to get 0. 12-2-2-2-2-2-2=0 so 12/2=6 12/0=12-0-0-0-0-0... You will never Reach 0. Everybody has 0 pieces and you still have 12 pieces of chocolate ;)
@@Chickenpl Thank you for your comment. Now I'll say that I'll give people chocolate and I'll mention what you said and eat it by myself right in front of them. _I think I'm awakening my inner demon_

Square root of negative 1 is still called as imaginary number 😅 Btw very interesting and informative video. And one of the best thing about TED-ED is they literally make videos on every topic whether it's science, literature, economics anything.👍💙
One cool thing about i though is how it's used in quantum mechanics to describe the probabilistic wave function. It is used to get to exceptionally accurate numbers in the real world. It isn't just a weird math trick it is useful for tangible real world experiments which have given the most accurate scientific results in human history.
0:55 Not even. The limit of a/x for any constant a as x approaches 0 still does not exist because x can approach 0 from both sides. Sure, a/x as x tends to 0 from the right will approach infinity, but as x tends to 0 from the left, a/x actually tends to -infinity.
@@milandavid7223 yeah. But one way to define a calculation is by knowing its limit. For example lim (x->0) 1+x = 1, so we can say that 1+0=1 But for 1/0, it has upper limit and lower limit so different (inf, and - inf) so it has no limit. Or in other word, 1/0 can NOT be defined
You can if you go based on the pure definition of division. Example: 5/0 --> how many times can a quantity of 0 be taken away from 5 until you have a quantity of 0 and the answer to that is that you can take 0 away from 5 an infinite number of times. The only reason people have disavowed /0 is because it causes algebra to fall apart at a surface level, and the = sign loses its practical meaning without getting into some rabbit hole math.
You're not dividing by zero, just suuuuper small intervals that approaches zero. If you understand it, you'll realize Newton came up with a beautiful way to sidestep the law.
2:30 Uhh.. 1/0 is undefined so basically you can't do anything with it even If you add or multiply zero (as it will also make it undefined because of fractions)
I hate these myths videos that lie to people and make them more confused about maths. Dividing for zero answers the same very existing question that every other division answers. 3/0 = undefined, not infinity and also infinity is NOT a number. You could get a defined answer but your number system would have to change a bit and loose some other properties but please understand that zero is not special, you can divide by zero and the answer under the most commonly used systems is "undefined".
Just Some Random Person not possible, your brain has no pain receptors. You're just formulating a negative reaction to a concept you don't want to put time to fully comprehend.
No but when you rearranged to add zero to zero in 3:36, you didn't add infinity to infinity. So if you add that, it becomes 2 times infinity wouldn't it?

“That’s not necessarily wrong, it’s just not true”
In our world of numbers.
"He is not necessarily dead, only his heart isn't beating."
@@MayMayCentre that presupposes a particular philosophy of numbers.
I get that...true is not wrong
I didn't lose, I merely failed to win!
Another interesting method is to use limits. If you look at a graph of 1/x, you’ll notice that the graph skyrockets up when approaching zero from the right, and plummets down when approaching zero from the left. This is because if we begin to approach zero from the right (or positive) side (by starting a 1 and then to 0.1 and then 0.01...), the answer approaches infinity. But when we approach zero from the left (or negative) side (from -1 to -0.1 to -0.01...) the answer approaches negative infinity. This means that if we were to assign a value to the graph when it reaches zero (yes I know you cannot do this), it would have to equal both positive and negative.
In a sense that is a perfectly valid result. Do mathematicians not know how to use it (I suppose: "yet")? I'm sure they will find a big use for it if not already.
Which also means that it can’t be a function, because that would leave two outputs for the same x value
Yes.
And if you try to find a solution to
y = 8x +1
16x - 2y = -2
And do the math:
16x + -2(8x + 1) = -2
16x + -16x + -2 = -2
0x = -2 - -2
0x = -2 + 2
0x = 0
0x/0 = 0/0
It comes out to:
0/0 = ∞
So the solution is infinitely many.
Which, in my logic, proves n/0 = ±∞
Depending if n is -i or i where i is an rational or irrational number.
@@hstochla it can also be a solution of two linear functions.
Where there's the same slope and y-intercept.
y = -x
7x + 7y = 0

0x = 0
0x/0 = 0/0
Solution ↓
0/0 = ∞
There are infinitely many solutions to this problem.
imo i don’t think this is the best way of looking at it as 1/x^2 goes to positive infinity from both the right and left, but you still can’t divide by 0

When he started talking about what multiplication and division _are,_ I thought he was going to touch on how if 2 x 5 = 10 and 10 ÷ 5 = 2, that means that if you add 2 five times, or have five groups of 2, you have 10, and if you separate 10 into 5 groups, you have 2 in each. So if you want to divide 10 by 0, that would be like saying you want to split 10 things into groups with 0 in them, and how many groups do you have? Or in reverse, how many groups of 0 things would it take to add up to 10? Well, neither one is physically possible.
Physically possible is pretty irrelevant to math, though. That's something for physicists and engineers to worry about.
You can define a math where dividing through 0 is possible. You're probably going to have to give up some other features the more common ones have, like the distributive property or multiplicative inverses, and it might not be terribly intuitive. But it is hardly impossible.
Dividing by 0 isn't forbidden, it's just not defined in the default math most people learn.
@@Llortnerof R/iamverysmart?
Okay, but physicists and engineers _literally use math._ The reason math exists as it does is because of the world we live in. Universal constants in physics and astronomy were designed to allow us to mathematically calculate things we can't or don't have time or resources to study. And the results contribute to real-world projects.
How do engineers build structures that can withstand hurricane force wind? Well, they have to calculate certain numbers and dimensions... with math. Force, vector, friction -- they're all real concepts translated into mathematical form in order to quantify them.
Math does hold true because we made it that way. Sure, we could make it _not_ that way, but that wouldn't make much sense, literally or figuratively.
So I really don't get the point of calling out my post by saying it's only one kind of math. Math is math. There's only one. If you wanted to "define a math" where other things are possible, that would mean changing math. Sure, you could say dividing by zero is possible, but when an apple falls from a tree, you wouldn't be able to calculate how long it takes to reach the ground.
Also, when I say "physically possible," that's not the same as saying things are _impossible,_ just that they translate to real-world concepts. The square root of -1 is pretty impossible, but mathematicians still use it because it's useful in complex calculations. That's why there's a differentiation between those so-called "complex" numbers (some of which are real, some of which aren't) and just plain "real" numbers. Those are separate _branches_ of mathematics, if that's what you meant. I'm not really sure.
@@matrixphijr You're still working in the realm of physicists and engineers, not math. Math is an entirely abstract, logical construct completely detached from physical reality.
Your physical constants are merely how these things are represented in mathematical terms. They weren't devised so math could be used on them. They are the result of using math to describe these things.
Math holds true because it is entirely based on logical conclusions from a set of predefined axioms.
Defining a math does not mean "changing math". It means creating a new math. The regular math you're used to still exists besides it.
Math is essentially a language. Defining a new math is similar to creating a new dialect.
What you're calling "seperate branches" is all first semester university math. By second year a math student will already have dealt with maths way more complex than that and may well have built a simple one themself.
And, uh... impossible literally means "not possible". So if you're saying something is not physically possible, you're saying it is physically impossible.
@@Llortnerof It's no wonder you compare it to a language, since you're a master of twisting words.
Look, I'm not having an argument about this. You realize you responded to a comment breaking down why 2 x 5 = 10 with a bunch of rambling nonsense about creating a new system of math where you can divide by zero? And frankly, my dude, there's a reason no one's done that already -- actually, two -- because it would have no bearing on reality and therefore no use whatsoever, and honestly, no one cares. To borrow your ideology, it would be like creating a language that no one speaks.
@@matrixphijr All you're showing here is that you have a very limited understanding of math. Everything you're claiming is pointless? Has already been done, often multiple times, and at least once simply to show that it can be done.
Including creating new languages nobody speaks. In fact, that's kinda the default for a newly created language since it is new and thus doesn't have any speakers yet. Hasn't stopped people from not only creating a propper grammar for, but also translating Shakespeare into its original Klingon.

Since the time of the ancient Greeks, the philosophical nature of infinity was the subject of many discussions among philosophers. In the 17th century, with the introduction of the infinity symbol[1] and the infinitesimal calculus, mathematicians began to work with infinite series and what some mathematicians (including l'Hôpital and Bernoulli)[2] regarded as infinitely small quantities, but infinity continued to be associated with endless processes.[3] As mathematicians struggled with the foundation of calculus, it remained unclear whether infinity could be considered as a number or magnitude and, if so, how this could be done.[1] At the end of the 19th century, Georg Cantor enlarged the mathematical study of infinity by studying infinite sets and infinite numbers, showing that they can be of various sizes.[1][4] For example, if a line is viewed as the set of all of its points, their infinite number (i.e., the cardinality of the line) is larger than the number of integers.[5] In this usage, infinity is a mathematical concept, and infinite mathematical objects can be studied, manipulated, and used just like any other mathematical object.
The mathematical concept of infinity refines and extends the old philosophical concept, in particular by introducing infinitely many different sizes of infinite sets. Among the axioms of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, on which most of modern mathematics can be developed, is the axiom of infinity, which guarantees the existence of infinite sets.[1] The mathematical concept of infinity and the manipulation of infinite sets are used everywhere in mathematics, even in areas such as combinatorics that may seem to have nothing to do with them. For example, Wiles's proof of Fermat's Last Theorem implicitly relies on the existence of very large infinite sets[6] for solving a long-standing problem that is stated in terms of elementary arithmetic.

I sometimes get a bit of amusement out of testing how various caculators respond to division by 0. Most just say "Error", but my favourite response has to be "MyScript Calculator", which uses hand-drawn symbols as input:
The app recognises hand-drawn symbols and translates them to computer-written symbols, but when I write something like "0/0", it autocompletes to "0/(0+?)", as if the calculation is incomplete. Basically, the app just assumes that I'm not done writing the expression, and refuses to give any answer until I do. It makes the app seem so sassy.
"Oh, you have a 0 in the denominator? Well, that doesn't make any sense, so you MUST not be finished writing yet. Go ahead and write some more. I'm waiting."
Love that
That's because of discrete maths, a computer can't divide by 0 (basically if you have the algorithm will go into an infinite loop, and the quotient will grow larger and larger until it exhausts all available memory and your computer is going to die), so basically it's a way to prevent an error and the destruction of your device haha

5=7
And that doesn't make any sense.
Yet the video said 1=2 COULD be possible so what's so implausible about 5=7? Also, say infinity is every number all at once for the sake of argument. Then that means 5= infinity and 7 = infinity which means 5=7 is rather infinity = infinity which makes sense right?

The only reason people have disavowed /0 is because it causes algebra to fall apart at a surface level, and the = sign loses its practical meaning without getting into some rabbit hole math.

"Fun new worlds to explore"
Ahh yes. More suffering for me and kids at school.

After watching this video I was able to create new universes and talk to 12 dimensional beings
Did you talk to being from the 12th dimension, or 12 different dimensional beings?
@@kaydenelmsly406 my mom
why tho
Basically, dividing by zero it is trying to answer an non existing question.
oo
So an imaginary question?
No need to throw me out,
I will go divide myself by 0
@Quinzerrak no
I hate these myths videos that lie to people and make them more confused about maths. Dividing for zero answers the same very existing question that every other division answers.
3/0 = undefined, not infinity and also infinity is NOT a number. You could get a defined answer but your number system would have to change a bit and loose some other properties but please understand that zero is not special, you can divide by zero and the answer under the most commonly used systems is "undefined".
Logically 10/0 is 10.
1:56 how can you write 3 x 2 = 6 x 1/2 = 3 ....
my math teacher says that if you divide by 0 you blow up the world
I know, i did it once and almost destroy the universe
Thanos did that
Andress Style
Did *you* destroy Pluto?! 😱
No.
Not until u start writing the answer
Chuck Norris can divide by zero.
You sir are a genius!
Nope. Bruce Lee can do better.
Of fudge forgive me lord Bruce. He can divide by unknown numbers and he's Asian
Haha! Better need to bring a calculator for exam. *brings Asian kid* Come on! You can count.
1÷0= to infinty ganulet of thanos
*My mind hurts.*
Just Some Random Person not possible, your brain has no pain receptors. You're just formulating a negative reaction to a concept you don't want to put time to fully comprehend.
Andrew Vaughan I think your trying to be funny but at the same time I think you're serious
Yes.
Just Some Random Person mine too
I found a video that hurts your brain even more.
th-cam.com/video/emlcwyvnsg0/w-d-xo.html
and involves 0 and infinity
No but when you rearranged to add zero to zero in 3:36, you didn't add infinity to infinity. So if you add that, it becomes 2 times infinity wouldn't it?
_Thanos wants to know your location_
No I wanna know his location
say him it's arround somwhere in our visible universe... flying at unknown speeds with undefined coordinates.
Thanos wants to divide by infinity to reduce everything to 0
@dn pɐəɥ ɹnoʎ uɹnʇ Well, technically he wants to divide half the universe by 0. Wait, what?
@dn pɐəɥ ɹnoʎ uɹnʇ *silently* oh my god
1=2
No one:
My mom: it's because of that DAMN PHONE
Alshaar Ansari technically she’s right, if u watched it from ur phone :/
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@primaabelou4695 destroyed
because of youtube, because of TED-Ed, because of this video
This only strengthen my conclusion that absolute infinity is nothingness which is the actual holy grail of perceiving our universe.
What are you on about?
**calls president**
He knows.
AA-VFX is right. Zero is infinite because you can get any value by subtracting something from it. As in 0 - -3 = 3
@@youremoreclevertheniam that makes sense, and yet, it does not make sense…..Now I hate zero
Why do i keep seeing your comments on so many random videos???
So this is why kids gets twice rewards. 0:34
Thanks! This is the first time I have actually heard an explanation of "why" this is other than "it's just doesn't work".
