Hey, guys. I've been thinking over a reflection and maybe you can help me.

For this problem, we are going to make math values real values, as follows:

1 = something, any substance, matter.

0= nothing, emptiness, etc.

Let's observe:

1 + 0 = 1

1-0 = 1

So far we are doing well, since we cannot add anything to something and it would remain

the same, in the same way that we can not subtract anything from anything and it remains

invariable.

However, problems begin to arise with the following:

1 x 0 = 0

1: 0 = Infinity

How is it possible that if we divide something, a substance between nothing gives us an INFINITE result? The only possibility is that there is an infinite number of 'nothing' to fill up 'something', but still ... If we split something between nothing, it would be the same than not splitting it. However, in the division it looks like we divide instead of multiply, because we get INFINITY.

What answer can we give?

Well, in division 1: 0 = Infinity, it is possible to think that 1 is equal to everything and equivalent of infinity, and therefore cannot be canceled unless subtracted: 1-1 = 0; but this is contradicted when we observe the multiplication: 1x0 = 0.

Regarding the division, it can be seen as setting of A by B. How many sets of 0 (B) fit in a set 1 (A)? We would see that in the 1 fit infinite 0; but it would still not form one.

Yes, they would fit infinitely, of course, but still those infinites would not be enough to reach one, because every 0 of that periodic succession are nothing and have no value.

On the other hand, in multiplication I see everything somewhat sharper.

To illustrate this, look at this example: “From each tree you see, pick an apple”, but if there is no tree you cannot take an apple; in other words, 1x0 = 0. But of course, if there are no apples and no tree would be 0x0 = 0, since there is absence of both elements.

The logical thing would be to think that by multiplying something by nothing (1x0) that one would remain, that something, because you are not adding anything.

The same happens with the division (1: 0 = Infinity), when distributing something among anyone, you should keep that.

Regarding division, we can offer a metaphysical and speculative response.

We assume that all numbers are eternal, because as much as 1 may vary to 1.1, the concept of 1 as a reference to something and a single thing or unit will always prevail.

That is, 0 and 1 are already infinite in time. Therefore, at a non-existent point of matter ‒ at no point ‒ it would be 0, which being nothing or having space for metter 1 could not, in any way, be introduced into nothing, then before that collision of everything and nothing as much 1 as 0 would lose their essence.

We observe the same idea with an atom. According to the Heinsenberg Principle of Uncertainty, the position and velocity of an atom cannot be identified by man - not even nature - because due to the dual character between wave and particle of the atom, it is found in several simultaneous points. However, when a meter is used and it is about knowing its exact position, it gives a concrete one, because when measuring an atom its behavior changes.

To illustrate it in another way, in case they put surveillance cameras in our rooms and we have proof of it, our behavior will not be the same, we will be inhibited and spied on, so we will show some repulsion to perform certain activities that we used to see normal .

Well, the same happens with 1 and 0: they would lose their numerical essence, when mixed they would no longer be 1 or 0 proper; because 0, although it is nothing in the mathematical field, it has a conceptual existence and would vary the behavior of 1.

Therefore, having lost its material essence, only the infinite nature of the remaining number would remain, in other words, the infinite.

Now, how something for nothing is nothing? Is 1x0 possible?
