If you divide by zero, is it undefined or infinity.

[iKebab]

I don't know.

One of my classmate asked my math teacher. She just said it won't work so don't bother doing it

Technically you can divide by 0 since it was a human thought / creation <_>

was it? O: i missed that in my math book

State your nerdy arguments here. I say it's niether, it's more like breaking the fundemental laws of algebra

1/0 = x
so in theory,
1 = 0x
1 = 0
Not possible. So division of zero is not undefined nor is it infinity because it breaks the laws of mathematics :O

you cannot divide by zero. zero is not a real number. it's illegal (harrharr), cannot be done.

mathematically it's undefined, but in certain circumstances, we can deduce that it can represent infinity (for example, i had zero trucks. i bought one truck. how many times more trucks do i have now?).

0 = nothing

0 divide 0 = half of nothing

you cannot divide by zero. therefore, you can't assign a variable to it because you cannot do it in the first place. it's illegal (harrharr), cannot be done.

5x = 0

I just assigned x to 0

Not defined in real, otherwise it's infinity.

When you Divide something by zero it is said to be Undefined coz you cant divide a thing in 0 parts ... so thats why it is undefined and when you multiply something by 0 thats why it becomes 0 coz 0=0 !!!

Get into high school please.

I call infinity.

[HW$%yh5eh5ea5heheh5]

i actually completely agree with you. but my question is.... what if you divide by -0

[SoWhat]

i actually completely agree with you. but my question is.... what if you divide by -0

THEN YOUR A JERK!

YOU CAN'T. -0 = 0 = +0 = -1+1 = --------0

5x = 0

I just assigned x to 0

MPGH God. :/

Fixed post , that was a massive fail I did back there.

That is how i explain in my way and its is correct.. but i didnt used examples like a/0 = 0 .. coz he cant understand that !! @Alen

[[MPGH]master131]

OMG. ALL YOU GUISE ARE WRONG! WHEN YOU DIVIDE BY ZERO IT EQUALS 69, ERR, I MEAN 1337!
