Is it possible to have a whole number quotient from 2 number sets?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@SolomonZelman can u help answer this?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

What are you doing dividing set by another set? If so, I am sorry, because I've never done that type of operation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

talking any element from a number set and any element from the other number set and always having the quotient be a whole number. does that make more sense ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

meaning, i'm trying to create the number sets its for a programming project

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as far as I could figure, it's not possible

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Well, i would suppose \(\huge\color{blue}{ \sf 5,10,15,20,25,30 }\) \(\huge\color{red}{ \sf and}\) \(\huge\color{blue}{ \sf 1,2,3,4,5,6 }\) unless you mean that you can divide forsake "20" by ANY number in 2nd set, not just 4 (the 4th number)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya, the latter comment

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

by ANY element.... I would say \(\color{purple}{ \sf impossible }\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any element from the number set divide by any elemnet from the other number set

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

For sure not possible

OpenStudy (anonymous):

impossible is what I came up with as well. thanks!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yeah, it makes sense why it's impossible \(\color{blue}{ \sf :)}\)
