Let's use math! 1)Division is the inverse of multiplication. 2)X=57/0 can be rewritten as X*0=57. 3)The zero-product property states that X*0=0 for all real values of X. 4)If you combine the equations from 2 and 3 using the transitive property, you get: 5)57=0 This is obviously not true, which proves that division by zero is impossible for 57. You can slightly tweak this process to prove that X/0 is undefined for all non-zero values of X.
