Could we declare that 0+0,
YES IT IS ZERO BY DEFINITION OF ADDITION.
0-0,
YES IT IS ZERO BY DEFINITION OF SUBTRACTION.
0x0,
YES IT IS ZERO BY DEFINITION OF MULTIPLICATION.
and 0/0
NO IT IS NOT EQUAL TO ZERO.IT IS UNDEFINED.DIVISION Y ZERO IS PROHIBITED IN MATHS.
DIVISION IS REVERSE PROCESS OF MULTIPLICATION.
IF WE SAY 0/0 =A ,THEN IT IMPLIES A*0=0..THIS IS TRUE FOR ANY A ....0 OR 1 OR 2 OR 3 ...ETC....IT IS NOT UNIQUE...IT IS TERMED AN UNDEFINED TERM.
all equal 0? Explain
