Why Is Infinity Not a Number?

Imagine you have a never-ending candy jar, that's infinity! But unlike a regular number like 10 or 100, infinity doesn't stop. When we count to infinity, it keeps going forever and ever. That’s why infinity isn’t just another number; it’s more like magic that never ends.

Examples

  1. You have a bag with infinite candy, you can eat one piece every day, but the bag will never be empty.
  2. If you count forever and ever, you're still counting to infinity.
  3. Even if you add 10 more numbers to infinity, it doesn’t change, it's still infinity.
