Why the hell can't I divide a number by 0? :what:

Why if a number is multiplied by 0...it's 0? :dahell:

There are 6 people, there are 2 houses. Those 6 people are going to be divided into those 2 houses, so that means there are 3 people for each house.
There are 6 people, there are 0 houses. Those 6 people are going to be divided into those 0 houses, what so that means those people are just going to disappear? No. Those 6 people are still going to be around because they were divided into NOTHING.

Any number divided by 0 should remain itself. 6/0 = 6, 14/0 = 14 so and so forth.

Now.

Why is it if a number is multiplied by 0 it's 0? That just doesn't make any sense. :smh:

Multiplying is adding a certain number to itself for a specified number of times.

For the more visual learners:

5 x 5 = 25 | 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 25

So what I'm doing by multiplying 5 is adding 5 ok I just figured out why this isn't flawed but I typed all this shyt up and don't want to erase all my hard work. But my divide by 0 point still stands.


The definition of zero is no quantity or number; naught. BTW.

Discuss.

but if you said those 6 ppl were separated into no houses it makes sense. So the problem isn't the math but rather in languagizing math :troll:

If you have 6 people and want to divide them into 0 houses you are left with nothing, or rather an error since there are no houses to put the 6 people in. Having 6/0 = 6 means that the people all fit into one house.

But do the people not exist anymore? NO. They are still there and whole. So how am I left with nothing? :camby:
