minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish21•9 months agoDividing by zero is literally a prospect that breaks the algebraic rules. The general high school way to think about this is: I have no pizzas, and no friends to split them amongst. How many does each one get? It really doesn’t matter whether infinity, zero, or anything in between in this context, which is why it is undefined.
