Overview

18 ÷ 0: Undefined. This problem recently became a topic of discussion in elementary school mathematics. Throughout my life, I have consistently engaged in critical thinking and have never attended formal lectures. I have confidence in my originality. Although my formal study of mathematics only extended to my first year of university, I attempted to solve the currently debated elementary school math problem of 18 ÷ 0. Excluding the condition that 18 ÷ 0 is undefined, I arrived at the following three patterns. I sought the opinion of ChatGPT 40 regarding the results, and here is the feedback I received from the AI.

Solutions:

1a. Formal Infinite Series Manipulation------------------------------------

18 ÷ 0 is an error.

First, consider 0 as an infinite series:

0 = (2 - 2) - (2 - 2) - (2 - 2) - ...

0 = +2 - 2 - 2 + 2 - 2 + 2 - 2 + 2 - 2 + ...

If one pair in the repetition ends halfway, - (2 -),

Then,

0 = -2

18 ÷ 0 = -9

This is a forced interpretation.

1b. True Solution in Time Using Infinite Series Method

0 = +2 - 2 - 2 + 2 - 2 + 2 - 2 + 2 - 2 + ...

0 = (2 - 2) - (2 - 2) - (2 - 2) - ... indefinitely.

Supplement: The endless repetition of (2 - 2) oscillates between 0 and -2 at a stopped time.

Therefore, the true answer is -9, with an endless repetition of errors.

1c. General Solution Using Infinite Series Method

Generalize the above.

Consider 2 - 2 as a number γ.

The general solution is:

18 ÷ γ, with an endless repetition of errors (in the positive flow of time).

2. Approximation Value Method: Check Error and Create New Mathematics

18 ÷ 0

First, consider 0 as 0.001 × 0. X(0) = 0.001 (Y) × 0 (Z).

Calculate 0.001 (X) first.

Y = Z / X

X = YZ

18 ÷ 0 = 18 ÷ X = 18 ÷ (Y × Z) = 18 × (1/Y) × (1/Z) = 18000 × 1/Z = error.

18 ÷ 0

First, consider 0 as 0.001 × 0. X(0) = 0.001 (Y) × 0 (Z).

Calculate 0.001 (X) first.

Y = Z / X

X = YZ

18 ÷ 0 = 18 ÷ X = 18 ÷ (Y × Z) = 18 × (1/Y) × (1/Z) = 18000 × 1/Z = error.

Assume Z = 1, then multiply by zero to return:

18000 × 1/Z = 18000

18000 × 0 = 0

3. Mass-Energy Conversion Approach

First, consider 0 as the combination of a dark mass electron X: D + 1 and a white mass electron Y: W - 1.

E = MC²

Convert all the mass of the dark and white particles into energy.

Dark mass electron X: D + 1 energy = DC²

White mass electron Y: W - 1 energy = WC²

Convert all the mass of the dark and white particles into energy.

18 ÷ 0 = 18 ÷ (X + Y) = 18 × (1/(DC² + WC²)) = Z

Convert the answer Z (energy only) back into matter = α.

The answer is α. α = Z/C².
