If so, give your answer to infinity. If not, why can it not be answered? Give details, please.

basically , no,,,, infinite is used in several ways, math,,, philosophy,,,,, it represents something beyond what you can define, meaning that next number,,,,,, the power of God,,,,,, so i guess the answer to the infinite would be maybe,,,,, maybe something more is there,,,,, who knows? once you answer it, it becomes no longer infinite,,,,,, the next thing beyond it is

Infinite isn't a question. So there is no answer.

I think that infinite can be partially understood. Although we can't imagine something infinite, we can understand many properties of infinity.

The concept of infinite is not an absolute concept, as it depends upon everything finite. In order to conceive infinity through number line, for example, we need to count incrementally all finite number leading up to impossibility. And this impossibility is in our own ability; it is in reality our limitation in counting. Then as we say everything, we conjure up a concept of infinity again meaning countless number of things put together, but howsoever huge the bulk of everything might be it still is an accumulation of finite things, and each of which is a something. If then infinite is not the absolute but a logical conception of our own limited ability then the concept for its reality depends upon human thinking - what is infinite for us might not be infinite for some other states of being in existence.

I understand that all concepts that are relative in their definition can be answered in terms of things they are related to. There are, for example, unlimited things happening at any time everywhere in existence. But this does not stop certain particular things from happening, and being distinctively recognised. The existence of you and me, for example, are two definite such instances in existence; the instances of our lives have distinctively emerged out a chaos of an infinite number of possibilities. This I reckon is the answer to infinite that surrounds us even now. And then as life in general emerges from an infinite disorder in existence then this I regard as an answer to the infinite, finite, distinctive and very peculiar.

Yes, when the unit divides itself by nothing infinity is answered.

1 / 0 = ∞

So, at least part of you must become nothing in order to be infinite.

Enjoy!

The infinite is not a question. What 'answer' are you looking for?

Mathematically ---yes. What is the equation for pi---the circumference of a circle. 3.14....999...It is continuous with no beginning and no end. Time is infinite---even if the watch is broken---it is still correct twice a day.

Infinite is its own answer. Definable only by itself. An answer for that which has no answer.

infinite is the numbers that we didn't discover yet
so infinity is infinity

Depends in what modality you are referring to. In mathematics, it is no problem. In physics, it doesn't really exist. In philosophy, it has no practical meaning other than limitless. Which is the better choice of word.
