You dumb, nigger.

>As per >>9861710 (OP) , let "division" be a shortcut for subtraction. Aka division is the same operation as subtraction.
You extra dumb, nigger.

Division is counting repeated rounds of subtraction, kinda like multiplication is summing repeated rounds of addition. The operation is not identical to subtraction, that would defeat the purpose of it.

>>I have no idea why that is the way it is said it is
Anyone who says 10/0=10 is either trolling or fucking stupid. The closest answer is infinity, because you can always continue subtracting 0 from 10.

I sure hope no one thinks division by 0 is 0.
