So what happens if you divide by zero? Post pics or your own written ideas

This?

[Auxis]

Thats like asking what happens if The Unstoppable Force meets The Immovable Object...

Chuck Norris is what happens.

[Mitak]

Something, somewhere in the universe dies

[Chrno]

1
0 = 1

that what you mean ?

[Marooned]

Youll get overwhelmed how to distribute your stuff to 0 ppl and eventually die

If you divide with zero, a guy somewhere near you turns gay

A hundred angry netizens appear and bonk you on the head for making a thread that's been made literally tens of thousands of times before.
Also amusing (and wrong) math appears:

The limit approaches infinity

Right answer right here

...if we're talking about limits...

I think of it in terms of physical objects. A pie divided into 0 pieces is still a whole pie. A pie divided into 1 pieces is still a whole pie.

I think of it in terms of physical objects. A pie divided into 0 pieces is still a whole pie. A pie divided into 1 pieces is still a whole pie.

Let's rephrase that:
"How many pieces of size 0 can we get out of a pie of size 1?"

1 divided by 0, you're actually asking how many times you are able to take "0" out of "1". The answer would be infinite.

Wouldn't the pie just... cease to exist? if there's 0 pieces of it... just my line of thinking :P

Revolutionary mathematical proof right here

1 divided by 0, you're actually asking how many times you are able to take "0" out of "1". The answer would be infinite.

Infinite, as in... my pie never gets smaller. therefore always remaining... 1 ... whole.... delicious... pie.

You get a 0... from your teacher.
