Question

What is 5/0? i've gotten 0,and infinite plz tell me which one is correct?

Answer 1

undefined

Answer 2

Infinite

Answer 3

Division by zero is undefined by today's mathematics. So there is simply no correct answer. You cannot divide by zero. Simply. Cant.

Answer 4

Um... You can't divide by zero. There is no infinite to it.. you just cant..

Answer 5

Mathematically it is "undefined". It is effectively infinite.

That's because if you make the smallest denominator you can that's just a bit bigger than zero, the answer will still not be infinite.. just very very big.  Then make that denominator smaller still... the answer is even bigger, but not infinite. SO, if you do actually make the denominator zero, you have made a discontinuous jump from a small, finite value, to zero and that makes a big difference to how it is treated mathematically.

Answer 6

If you had a cake with five slices and you divided it between zero people, how much cake would each person get? This is how your question would translate into english. It doesn't make sense. Undefined.
