Big Maths doesn't want you to know this, but it is perfectly possible to divide by 0.
It is infinity x the sign of the number you are dividing.
if x < 0, x/0 = -infinity.
if x = 0, x/0 = 0.
if x > 0, x/0 = infinity.

That's incorrect. For example, here is the graph -1/x
The function is not defined at 0, and the limit of the function as it approaches 0 is not defined because the left limit doesn't equal the right limit, assuming the standard algebraic rules.

This is child-like thinking that infinity is just some big finite number.
What is infinity + 1?

More importantly, is infinity + 1 = infinity + .99999….?

infinity*1*1 = infinity*2 (= infinity)
(dividing both sides with infinity)
1*1 = 2

This simplification would make math problems infinitely more simple to solve, which is why math teachers are covering it up. They would be out of a job if this got out.

Did you just re-descover limits?

That's a hyperbole. Ba dum tss!

When is dividing 0 to infinity ever gonna have practical use for the world?
Never
I don’t understand math nerds and there weird obsessions

infinite is not real
