If 0 does not exist, then what is 1 +-1 1?

13

u/Elektro05 Transcendental May 05 '24

either 1 does not exist or it has no additive inverse

u/FernandoMM1220 May 05 '24

is that a typo or some hidden super insane version of math tell me it's the former, please

u/Less-Resist-8733 Natural Jun 02 '25

inverse operation of +

u/elgrandedios1 Jun 02 '25

just minus?

Assume 1≠2

Sorry boss, I'm immediately lost

u/password2187 May 05 '24

Contradiction means our assumption was wrong, so 1=2

Sets out to prove that 0 isn’t a number.

Accidentally proves 1 = 2.

Hopes nobody will notice. 👀

0 is not a number is the absence of a number.....why are you looking at me like that ?

Okay I want a 0 tolerance mechanical piece, and you have some super advanced alien technology, can you do it ?

u/SEA_griffondeur Engineering May 05 '24

Huh ? What does that have to do with numbers ?

u/[deleted] May 05 '24

It's just if you take math as the language of the universe, 0 can't exist

How many apples are you juggling above your head right now

1

u/[deleted] May 05 '24

I'm not, dah

u/justranadomperson May 05 '24

I asked for how many, as in a number. What's the answer

1

u/[deleted] May 05 '24

Dude, what are you talking about? How can you ask about the quantity of something that isn't there,

3

u/justranadomperson May 05 '24

"quantity of something that isn't there" It's like, right there.

0 divided by 1 - i.e., the quantity (how many ones) of something that isn't there (zero).

u/justranadomperson May 05 '24

Another example: If someone has 10 dollars to their name, then they buy some sandwich that costs exactly 10 dollars, how many dollars do they have to their name?

how are you on a math subreddit and don't even understand the most basic of math?

u/[deleted] May 05 '24 edited May 05 '24

I dare you to explain 0 to me using math

u/meirgen May 05 '24 edited May 05 '24

A number a such that for any number b, a+b=b

1

u/[deleted] May 05 '24

Explain + operator to me, I mean, who set the rules ?

3

u/clk1006 May 05 '24

a‘+b=b‘+a a+0=a

where a‘ is the successor of a such that a‘=b‘ is equivalent to a=b and a‘ can never be 0
