What is infinity divided by infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Aug 11, 2012 · I know that $\infty/\infty$ is not generally defined. However, if we have 2 equal infinities divided by each other, would it be 1? if we have an infinity divided by another half-as-big infinity, for
Can I subtract infinity from infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Apr 28, 2016 · Can this interpretation ("subtract one infinity from another infinite quantity, that is twice large as the previous infinity") help us with things like limn→∞(1+x/n)n, lim n → ∞ (1 + x / n) n, or is it …
