even though is the variable, he identity property o zero states all numbers divided or multiplied by zero equal zero. Therefore, your answer is zero

Ans 2 The answer above is just plain wrong.

The identity for multiplication and division is 1. 5*1=1 5/1=1 .

n times zero is zero

n divided by zero is undefined. If you try to sneak up on it the results get ever larger.

For this reason division by zero is forbidden in math.

We have all seen "proofs" that 1=2 or similar nonsense. This is done by algebraic manipulation with a division by zero cunningly hidden in it.
