sharky's problem !!

some weeks ago sharky kesa posted a note that proves that 1+1=1 here is a better version of it $\infty =\infty \\ { \infty }^{ 2 }=\infty \times \infty \\ { \infty }^{ 2 }-{ \infty }^{ 2 }=\infty \times \infty -{ \infty }^{ 2 }\\ (\infty +\infty )(\infty -\infty )=\infty (\infty -\infty )\\ cancelling\quad (\infty -\infty )\quad from\quad both\quad sides\\ and\quad we\quad got\quad \\ 2\infty =\infty \\ \infty =0\\ \frac { 1 }{ 0 } =0\\ 1=0\quad \\ here\quad in\quad place\quad of\quad 1\quad we\quad can\quad put\quad any\quad integer$ hence shown that any integer can be equal to 0

note: i know that it is wrong but maths is fun !!

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

The flaw is that when you divide by $(\infty-\infty)$ on both sides you divide by $0$ . Cool! :D

hey finn , i have already mentioned that it's wrong but thanks for your reply hey is there any e-mail id of you i have questions that are silly but i want to ask you if you can help me it would please me !!!

@Finn Hulse I am not very sure,but I don't think so that $\infty-\infty = 0$ [Although I know that the proof is still wrong and we can't divide by $\infty-\infty$ ]

That's true since there are different levels of infinity.

Finn Hulse - 6 years, 8 months ago

But in this proof they're taken to be the same thing.

I never even saw this until now! @Rishabh Jain
