sto a really high number into x. then plug in.

But stop and think about it for a second first. What is an infintely large number - an infinitely large number equal to?

see i never got that whole infinity thing i think

how could there BE a limit of sumthin tha'ts infinity???

wait...

so the first one...the limit would be zero because if it's like 1/8098098938472937502935723957....it's almost zero...

and the second one...the limit would be infinity cuz if it's a really giant a$$ number....it'll go on forever..??

omg...i think i understand it kinda...but yea....

is that rite??

well, we can't perceive it...it's just theoretical stuff. Along these lines, we can realize things such as how 2*infinity > infinity and the like. When you compute it mathematically, you begin to realize that the classic saying "a fraction of infinity is still infinity" is completely false. A fraction of infinity is still just a fraction of infinity.
