#Prove this as false... [I couldn't]

0/0 is indefinite
more or less undefined
if 0.0...01 is zero, then you cant exactly divide with it
as you have established in z=0=0.0...01
but what if you do it before proving it.... Its like double slit experiment @prime harbor.... There is a different answer before proving it and after... What are your thoughts mate???
it's not the double slit experiment in the sense that there is a definite value equivelent to 0/0
also both have been proven to what they are
double slit = light is ambiguous that it behaves like both a particle and a wave (i dont see how this is related)
the 0/0 is undefined and indeterminate in its part because it has been proven to be so
Oka what is 0.0000001/0.0000001 (infinite no. of zeros)
for the most part in the "proof", emphasis on " ",
undefined
as you have established that 0.0 repeating 1 is 0
wait do you have a background on limits
perhaps it would be better to relay it that way
what woud would you do before proving it...
$
the factorial can be defined as the number of ways a thing can be arranged or combined
nCr, nPr
combinatorics stuff
so basically, you have zero things
you only have one way to arrange those zero things
ergo, 0! is 1
simple enough
1 = 0.001/0.001 = 0.00001/0.00001 = ...
till infinity
you see, that's where limits come in
???
.
nopeee
it deals with infinitesimals
i.e. very small quantities
close but not quite zero
hmmm
the 0/0 has been proved through contradiction using limits
you even somewhat used limits in your proof
you claimed 0/0 = 1, while also 0/0 = 0
and somehow concluded that 0/0 = 1 =0
which is false
as zero is not one, nor one is zero
therefore, the logical conclusion is that 0/0 is not equal to zero, nor it is equal to one
it is undefined
okk
