Invent? It's more common sense than anything mate. It might not be obvious right away, but anyone can come to that conclusion with a bit of though.
0 is nothing, and infinite amounts of nothing can fit in any number.

Why can't any number be divided by zero?
If you divide any number by zero the answer is infinite. It cannot be specifiedAs you divide by smaller and smaller numbers, the answer can approach positive infinity or negative infinity. Even if there was a single answer, "infinity" is never acceptable in arithmatic as an answer.
How come you cannot divide a number by zero but you can multiply a number by zero?
If you multiply any number by zero the answer is zero If you dividea number by zero the answer is undetermined. It is usually infinity , since when you divide a number ( numerator0 by a small the number (denominator) the smaller that denominator the larger the answer, and zero is so small that the answer is infinite. But not always, as in special cases when the numerator is also zero
Does any real number divided by zero result infinity?
You can't divide by zero. But if you take any real number and try dividing it by smaller and smaller numbers that are closer and closer to zero, your result will get closer and closer to infinity.
What is the quotient of 71 divided by 0?
Undefined: You cannot divide by zero
Why 5 divided by 0 undefined?
Undefined: You cannot divide by zero
What is the result of dividing a number by zero?
You can not divide by zero - it is not defined. Presumably you get infinity, but there are different types of infinity.
What is the answer of 1 divided by infinity?
Firstly we don't know infinity value. If you divide any number by infinity then answer will be zero. Example is divide 100/3 by infinity ( let infinity is equal to 1/0). Then answer is 100/3/1/0 you will get zero.
What is infinity divided by 2?
It would be infinity. If you divide zero by 1, you'll get infinity (or undefined, depending on how specific you want to be.) If you divide zero by 2, you'll still get infinity. There is no difference, no matter what you divide it by as long as it is a positive number.
Is one divide zero a real number?
it's infinity

Is infinity divided by infinity equal 1?
Firstly we don't know infinity value. If you divide any number by infinity then answer will be zero. Example is divide 100/3 by infinity ( let infinity is equal to 1/0). Then answer is 100/3/1/0 you will get zero.
Why the denominator of rational number should not be equal to zero?
To divide any number by zero will give infinity and therefore an error.
How do you properly divide by zero?
When I type any number divided by zero into my calculator, it flashes, "ERROR, ERROR," but I say it's possible. "It's not possible to divide by zero," my math teacher says, but who cares about her? Here's my data after graphing it out: If any positive number is divided by zero, it's infinity, if it's negative, it's negative infinity, and zero divided by zero is one. NO NO, you cannot divide by zero, really. See my discussion post.

What is infinity divided by pi?
Impossible to answer ! Infinity is a never ending quantity - and Pi is a never ending decimal !
