How come there isn’t an imaginary system for dividing a number by 0, while there is one for taking the square root of a negative number?
In: Mathematics
Division is just a fancy way to subtract. If you take 100 and divide by 2 what you are doing is seeing how many times you can subract 2 from 100 until you reach 0. So the answer is 50. But if you take 100 and divide by 0 it just doesn’t work. No matter how many times you subtract 0 from 100 you’ll never reach 0.
