...dudh.. it can't be
done

simple math

0/0 is 0 easy

Merkaba · 12-08-2006, 01:52 PM

It's infinity, because 0 can go into any number, an infinite amount of times.

Lol either that or Mamagarmr's right, because on second thought 0 means theres nothing there to divide.

MoonlitSunshine · 12-08-2006, 02:04 PM

0/0

Guessing I would say = 1

But that would be really weird and not really make sense

tdoc210 · 12-08-2006, 02:45 PM

lol, its not possible. there is noting to divide.

Apparently it's to stop computers and devices like pacemakers from dividing 0.
Not mathamatical...more a gizmo.

MoonlitSunshine · 12-08-2006, 02:52 PM

yeah, it's stupid. It's the dividing by zero trick all over again.

mammrgrmrgaram's actually right. you cant divide anything into 0 parts, not even if you start out with 0. its a mathematical rule, and its constant no matter what the numerator is.

I think i'm just kind of shocked it's taken the greatest minds in the world yours to invent a piss easy answer to it.

And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead.
