Answer» Explanation: In MATHEMATICS, division by zero is divisionwhere the divisor (denominator) is zero. Such a division can be FORMALLY expressed as a/0where a is the dividend (NUMERATOR). In ordinary arithmetic, the expression has no meaning, as there is no number which, when multiplied by 0, gives a (assuming a ≠ 0), and so division by zero is undefined. Since any number multiplied by zero is zero, the expression 0/0 is also undefined; when it is the form of a limit, it is an indeterminate form. HISTORICALLY, one of the earliest recorded references to the mathematical impossibility of assigning a value to a/0 is contained in George BERKELEY's criticism of infinitesimal calculus in 1734 in The Analyst ("ghosts of departed quantities").[1] mark as brainlist |
