divide 0 by 1000

12  divided 'by' 3     is   4      divide by   means:   how many times will the 'by' go into the number

 

3/4    is   Three fourths    it is also   3 divided 'by' 4   

        

 

OK?   Am I helping?

if the equation is 0/1000 the answer is 0

if the equation is 1000/0 the answer is undefined.

These answers are the same for any number substituted for 1000
