Well, I have to do a topic for a math class and write up some stuff for it. My topic is zero but while researching it I came across division of zero. It gives me a number of different solutions and I don't know which is correct.
I can't really figure this out since it's actually more of a caculus level of a problem. My teachers were puzzled as well. I was wondering if anyone here had any idea of its solution. |

you can't divide by zero.. so the answer is undefined.
0/1 = 0 1/0 = undefined at least that is what i learned.. |

Thanks BA. I saw that but it was along with a ton of other equations and things. It dealt with infinity and things like that so I was getting a bit confused. Thanks for the help though.
