Countability

Yes.

It is possible to 1:1 map all dollar bills to all the twenties without ever exhausting the supply of either so this is a countably infinite collection. (Mathematicians call this โ€œbijection.โ€ because they watched too much sf I think.)

Means it is โ„ต0. Multiply that puppy by any real finite number and you get โ„ต0 all over again.

This is the most common infinity people talk about, and the โ€œintuitiveโ€ one. But there are others. The uncountable infinities where the Old Ones live.

Best not to think about those for now. Might hurt your brain. Or summon Yog-Sothoth.
