Bill heard that the two entries of the “Hall of Division” had special names – Numerator and Denominator. A special detector is installed at the entry “Denominator” so that it does not allow one specific occupant (referred to as “The Oblivion”) from the “House of Rational Numbers, Q”. When Bill enquired as to why the entry “Denominator” shows such strict regulations towards this particular occupant, he was told that the presence of The Oblivion at the “Denominator” entry could erase the entire Earth 2 from existence and that life on Earth 2 would become undefined.

Choose the correct inference made by Bill:

The Oblivion is an occupant of Room N and it is not allowed because division by the least member of Room N is undefined

Solution

The correct option is B
The Oblivion is an occupant of Room W and it is not allowed because division by the least member of Room W is undefined

Division by the oblivion is restricted because division by zero (the oblivion), which is also the least member of the 'House of Whole Numbers', is undefined.

Bill was walking in the ruins of “The Hall of Operations” where he found another ancient community hall. It was named The Negativus.

The behavior of this hall is similar to that of The Reciprocus in the sense that any occupant of the “House of Rational Numbers, Q” exit The Negativus as a different occupant, belonging to the same House.

Bill immediately came to the conclusion that, just like The Reciprocus did not allow The Oblivion, The Negativus also does not allow The Oblivion. Is Bill’s conclusion True or False?

Bill heard that in “The Hall of Operations”, there was another ancient temple, named “The Reciprocus”.

Legend says that when an occupant, say “a”, of the “House of Rational Numbers, Q” enters the temple, it exits the temple as a different occupant, “b”,belonging to the same house. Bill observed that, these occupants “a” and “b”, when they enter the hall of multiplication, they exit the hall as “1”.

Bill realized that the numerical counterparts of a and b (Earth 1) are ___________ of each other.

Bill thought of giving “The Hall of Operations” a visit, after listening to these interesting behaviors of the halls towards occupants from different rooms and houses.

He happened to visit the Hall from the back door entry and he saw 4 huge stones, one against each of the 4 halls (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division). Each stone had engravings on it describing the hall against which it is erected.

On one such stone, the following was engraved

“This hall has been and forever will be commutative for EVERY occupant of the “House of Rational Numbers, Q””.

This stone could correspond to which of the four halls?

Bill heard that the temple, The Reciprocus, does not allow one occupant of the house to enter. Which occupant is that?

During his explorations on Earth 2, Bill happened to visit “Numerus Linum”. Bill was excited to visit this place because he had heard a lot of stories about this place. Legend has it that this place is said to have a note of EVERY occupant of the “House of Rational Numbers, Q”. It was also rumored that this place is essentially a huge line which extends forever on both sides and never ends. It is on this line that all these occupants of the house are marked – each occupant has a unique place.

Bill wanted to see if this rumor was actually true, he decided to see the marking for the occupant “12.456”. He knew that this occupant would be between “12” and “13” and so he navigated to the mark 12. What could be his next step to identify “12.456”?
