Q:
A) 0 | B) 1 |
C) Undefined | D) Indeterminate |
Answer: D) Indeterminate
Explanation:
Explanation:
Indeterminate are those,which mathematics can’t determine.
Because we don’t actually know which one is the exact answer for this due to having lots of results for this.
Explanation::
- Let us think by this analogy that,
0 / 1 = 0
0 / 2 = 0
…………
………..
we can say 0 / n = 0 from this we can write, 0/0 = 0
- Again, another analogy,(from limiting concept of 1/0 = infinity)
1 / 0 = +∞ or -∞
2 /0 = +∞ or -∞
………
.…….
we can say 0 / 0 = ∞
- Again, another analogy,
1 / 1 = 1
2/2 = 1
.……..
………..
we can say, 0/0 = 1
Now, you see it’s confusing. Every analog is mathematically correct then which one is the right answer for 0/0. Therefore Mathematics can’t determine this fact.
So, 0/0 is indeterminate.
