The division by zero

Abstract

It is claimed that a division by zero doesn't work, a division by zero is undefined, since the same appears
to be not consistent with division by other numbers. A number multiplied by zero is zero, 0 times any
number is 0. Thus, some operations with zero are allowed. Any number divided by itself is one. Is zero a
number or not? Does a number or a reality as such remains unchanged when it gets into contact with zero?
Is zero divided by zero indeterminate or zero or one or undefined? Can we divide by zero? If not, why
can't we divide by 0? Division by zero appears to be an operation for which one cannot find an answer.
Does it make sense to divide by zero? Is dividing by zero really illegal? This publication will make the
proof, that under certain conditions
the division by zero
is allowed.
