∞ = ∞ x 2
11 0 ReplyThat's not a true statement. 2∞ < ∞ and ∞ < 2∞ is how you'd write it.
Otherwise you could subtract infinity from both sides and get 0 = ∞.
1 6 ReplyExcept subtraction is not applicable in this case
4 1 Replyeven if that's not how you can write it, one gets the same issue in yours subtracting infinity from both sides
1 0 ReplyNot true. 2∞ is not bigger or smaller than ∞. This is explained by Hilbert's hotel. And subtracting infinity from infinity is undefined so you do not get 0 = ∞.
