Lemme begin. A=A, right? Self explanatory. However, could it be possible that A is not A? Absolutely! Take Shrodigner's cat for example! Or math:
1. 1 divided by infinity=2 divided by infinity (GIVEN)
2. 1 (infinity)=2 (infinity) (mulitplication property of equality)
3. 1=2 (division property of equality)
Therefore A is not A, if 1=2.
Remember: I am just the devil's advocate! |
No matter how big the number is, 1 divided by it will be less than 2 divided by it, because 1 > 2. Thus, I guess I disagree with your first proposition: that 1/infinity = 2/infinity.
