Division is glorified subtraction (like multiplication is glorified addition). Ex. 20/5= 20-5=15; 15-5=10; 10-5=5; 5-5=0 thus 20/5=4
Now, let's apply this to zero
20/0= 20-0=20; 20-0=20... etc.
so therefore this would leave one to believe that the answer is infinity; however, when you learn limits you learn that when 20/x approaches zero from the positive direction it is infinity, but from the negative it is negative infinity. This means there is no answer. Being that infinity is an expression and not a number nothing can actually equal it... Thus 20/0 could equal blue. But for sake of argument let's say infinity was a number so 1/0=∞ and 2/0=∞ so that means 1/0=2/0 which means 1=2 which is obviously not true.

The world as we know it ceases to exist as the space-time continuum folds in on itself. Or Nothing happens. Division by zero is undefined. Any fraction with zero as a denominator is meaningless.
Division, of any number, by 0 is not defined.
No, division by zero is undefined in mathematics. It is not possible to divide any number by zero.
When I did my division, the answer was 32 and the remainder was Zero
Undefined. Division by zero is forbidden in mathematics.
"Division by zero is undefined" is the result on a calculator.
Division by zero is impossible.

They are not the same. You can multiply by zero but division by zero is not defined.
Division by zero is undefined.
Nothing, because zero cannot go into anything.
No. Zero is a rational number, but division by zero is not defined.
Division, of any number, by 0 is not defined.
Zero is pretty well defined. Division by zero is undefined.
No, division by zero is undefined in mathematics. It is not possible to divide any number by zero.
Division by zero is not defined. It is an "illegal" operation.It doesn't make sense to divide by zero.
Because division by zero yields no answer !
