The operation, division, is not symmetric.

There is a number, x, such that x*3 = 0. In fact x is also 0.

But

there is no number, y, such that y*0 = 3.

Why you can divide 0 by 3 but not 3 by 0?

3*0 = 0 Dividing both sides by 3 gives 0 = 0/3 and therefore 0/3 is defined and is equal to 0. However, there is no number, k, such that k*0 = 3 and so division by 0 is not defined. If there were such a number k, then you could divide both sides by k to give 0 = 3/k. But there is no such k.

How do you divide 270 by 3?

To divide 270 by 3, you can set it up as a long division problem or use simple arithmetic. When you divide, 3 goes into 27 a total of 9 times (since 3 x 9 = 27), and then you bring down the 0 from 270, making it 0. Thus, 3 goes into 0 zero times. Therefore, 270 divided by 3 equals 90.
