This is easily resolved using set theory. Essentially all you have to prove is that some sets of infinite numbers are larger than others sets of infinite numbers. For example, there are an infinite number of integers, but the set of complex numbers is a larger set of infinite numbers. Thus, the set of integers is contained within the set of complex numbers, for example. This originally goes back to Xeno's paradox. Sorry, but I don't feel like typing out an informal proof.I ask this question to all my math teachers but they can never give me a solid answer. So im asking you
How can you go from 1 to 2 if there are a infinite number in between????![]()
this is not a math question my friend!, this is one of the most difficult questions out there! - its connected to time, space, and to the ultimate question which i was talking about earlier "how was everything created from nothing" - in this case, we are talking about how you go from zero to one, how do u go from nothing to something, what is the first step you take when there are infinite steps!I ask this question to all my math teachers but they can never give me a solid answer.

bro, the thing is.., you dont even understand this question!Sry but i dont see any reason why u shouldnt be able to, to me it seems like a stupid question masking itself as smart one
This is actually quite trivial once you reach a certain level of education in mathematics. There's nothing mystical about it.this is not a math question my friend!, this is one of the most difficult questions out there! - its connected to time, space, and to the ultimate question which i was talking about earlier "how was everything created from nothing" - in this case, we are talking about how you go from zero to one, how do u go from nothing to something, what is the first step you take when there are infinite steps!
i believe in a formula i myselv created.., that 1 divided by infinity (at the same exact Time) = 0, if its not divided infinetly all at once, then the result will be this..(1 divided by infinity = infinity)
so in my opinion the first step is time, then space, perhaps when time comes in, every step u take is infinite, meaning you go from zero to infinity without anything in between, and its that infinity that creates that which we call one!!
afterall, in my opinion Zero and infinity are the exact oposite of eatchother! - if zero was an electron -, and infinity was a proton +, then 1 is a neutron! - it combines zero and infinity!!
i hope u understood what i mean
well all i said comes from my mind, and my mind alone, i didnt read it or heard it anywhere, but i believe there may be some truth to it.This is actually quite trivial once you reach a certain level of education in mathematics. There's nothing mystical about it.
also ur math teachers wouldnt know this, no one really knows for sure yet..I ask this question to all my math teachers but they can never give me a solid answer. So im asking you

normal people? - u think stupidity is normal?!easy, just ignore the infinite numbers like all normal people do![]()
Infinity is not a number and you will get detailed answer here.I ask this question to all my math teachers but they can never give me a solid answer. So im asking you

2 = 1You may have seen this little proof that 2=1:
a = x [true for some a's and x's]
a+a = a+x [add a to both sides]
2a = a+x [a+a = 2a]
2a-2x = a+x-2x [subtract 2x from both sides]
2(a-x) = a+x-2x [2a-2x = 2(a-x)]
2(a-x) = a-x [x-2x = -x]
2 = 1 [divide both sides by a-x]
You may doubt that 2=1. So, where is the mistake? Think about it.
You may not like the first step (a=x). But, we do this kind of thing all the time in Algebra. It's true for plenty of a's and x's. Assume that a is the number of ears on my head, and x is the number of ears on your head. In that case a=x (if a is not equal to x, forgive me for mentioning it).
Anyway, all of the steps are perfectly legal except for the last one, dividing both sides by a-x. What is a-x? Well, a=x (step 1), so a-x=0. In the last step, we divided by zero. That's not allowed. And this puzzle is a good example of why it is not allowed.
This is a specific example of a particular problem in math that has been proven for a very long time, which is why it's trivial by definition. Anything once proven, is considered or termed, "trivial".also ur math teachers wouldnt know this, no one really knows for sure yet..
i read what that Professor had to say, and i believe shes just as clueless as the others before her!, all she did was deny the truth! - kinda like the universe has always existed, its just out of our logic, and infinity is not a number - but no, infinity is a number! - its one of the three basic numbers 0,1,and infinity!!Infinity is not a number and you will get detailed answer here.

orly? i dont think sobro, the thing is.., you dont even understand this question!
I'm versed in graduate physics and math, neither considers infinity a number. Thus, if you consider whatever it is you're talking about to be related to these fields, accept that definition rather than insert your own for no reason. If this goes beyond human logic either you are human and do not understand it, which is more likely than you being supra-human. Imagination is fine, but it must operate under logical constraints, otherwise it's useless.i read what that Professor had to say, and i believe shes just as clueless as the others before her!, all she did was deny the truth! - kinda like the universe has always existed, its just out of our logic, and infinity is not a number - but no, infinity is a number! - its one of the three basic numbers 0,1,and infinity!!
try to understand my previous post, and perhaps you can see some truth!
that doctor didnt want to look bad infront of that girl, it was obvious that she was also wondered by this question! - thats because this question goes beyond the human logic and its NOT MATH!! - its Physics aswell.
