Is a number divided by zero irrational?
That is not what mathematicians mean by an irrational number, which is a number with an infinitely long decimal expansion. You will note that since division is the inverse of multiplication, dividing by small numbers has the same effect as multiplying by large numbers, and so dividing by zero, which is an infinitely small number, is equivalent to multiplying by infinity. The result in most cases is deemed to have no mathematical meaning.
How many numbers can be rounded to 500?
The short answer is, infinite. With just integers, There are 498 numbers that can round up to 500, and 498 that can round down. If we include partial numbers, there are infinite, since the numbers can get infinitesimally small.

Why would multiplying numbers in scientific notation be easier than multiplying them the regular way?
Multiplying numbers in scientific notation is easier when the numbers are very, very large or very, very small. Multiplying 0.000000000385 x 0.0000000474 is a pain. Multiplying 3.85 x 10-10 x 4.74 x 10-8 is not.

Why is minus times plus a minus?
This is easiest to understand using small numbers and the X,Y grid using the negative numbers to the left of 0 and positive to the right. By following the normal rules of multiplication, multiplying a negative number by a positive number moves the product further to the left from zero.
