For example, 52 = 3,but 25= 3.43.Answers will vary. Suppose one coat costs $150. Then themultiplication 4·$150 gives the cost of four coats.Suppose one ream of copy paper costs $4. Then the mul-tiplication $4·150 gives the cost of 150 reams.44.Using the definition of division, 0÷0 =asuch thata·0 = 0.We see thatacould beanynumber sincea·0 = 0 for anynumbera.Thus, we cannot say that 0÷0 = 0.This iswhy we agree not to allow division by 0.
