00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.344
Here is the problem: 1/x equals 0.

2
00:00:03.794 --> 00:00:04.990
Solve for x.

3
00:00:05.790 --> 00:00:07.264
Start with the equation.

4
00:00:07.714 --> 00:00:18.035
Multiply both sides by x to clear the fractions. This is only valid where x not equal to 0, so any value that makes it zero is excluded at the end.

5
00:00:18.485 --> 00:00:21.283
Move every term to one side and simplify.

6
00:00:22.083 --> 00:00:24.033
So the answer is No solution.

7
00:00:24.484 --> 00:00:29.604
The variable cancels and leaves a false statement, so no value of x works.
