Not allowed!
The operation "divide by zero" is not defined.
However, in the limit, as the denominator of a fraction approches zero, the quotient approached infinity. In other words, the result gets larger and larger the closer the denominator gets to zero.

Another thing to consider is the recipical of Y=2/X. YX=2 is an equivative of Y=X\2. But you know that any number multiplied by 0 is 0. If X is 0 in the equation the two variables could not equal 2.

What is a demominator?
the botton nmber of a fraction
When the numerator is the same as the denominator what happens?
The fraction reduces to 1 - UNLESS they are both zero, in which case the fraction is undefined.
Can zero be put into a fraction?
Zero can be neither the numerator nor the denominator of a fraction.
What happens when the numerator is zero?
Then the answer is straightforward - 0 When a numerator is zero it means that the value of the fraction is also 0. For example: there are 0/4 pieces of pie The numerator is 0 (the top number) The denominator is 4 (the bottom number) The value of the fraction is 0 because the numerator is zero (there are no pieces of pie)
A fraction with a zero in the numerator equals what?
zero.
What is a demominator?
the botton nmber of a fraction
What is the botton number call in a fraction?
It is the denominator.
What happens when a fraction Is over 0?
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.
When the numerator is the same as the denominator what happens?
The fraction reduces to 1 - UNLESS they are both zero, in which case the fraction is undefined.
What happens if a fraction has a denominator of 0?
The answer would be "undefined" as there is no way to divide a number by zero (0).
What is a nonzero fraction?
Any fraction that has a zero as the numerator equals zero. Any fraction that does not have a zero in the numerator would be a nonzero fraction.
What do you do when the fraction is 0 out of 2?
The fraction is zero. 0 divided by anything except zero is zero.
What is the rule for zero as the numerator in a fraction?
The rule is if the numerator is zero than the value of the fraction is zero.
Can zero be put into a fraction?
Zero can be neither the numerator nor the denominator of a fraction.
What would zero point To be in a fraction?
"Zero point" is 0. It is an integer, not a fraction.
Is negative nine over Zero a fraction?
-9 over anything but zero is a fraction. Division by zero is undefined.
How do you change a fraction when the numerator is 0?
You can't change a fraction when the numerator is zero because no matter what the denominator is the fraction is still zero. A zero denominator is not allowed because you cannot divide by zero.
