Personally I would guess there is nothing to devide in the first place. 0 / x is always 0  So why isnt this 0 but nullity?
*edit*
At work they are telling me
0 /x is not 0.. But what is it then? They dare defy me, but cant disagree with my view but cannot explain their one bit...

ill quote eddie murphy:
"No, don't say 'nothing'. Eddie. Nothing from nothing leaves nothing"
x / 0 = infinity
-x / 0 = -infinity
fair enough
0 / x = 0 #unless x=0
0 / 0 = irrelevant/no result
basicly what he is saying is this?
0/0 = -x/0 -> 0 -> x/0
"'nullity' - which sits outside the conventional number line (stretching from negative infinity, through zero, to positive infinity)"
does that mean , in the end, that 0 = x ?
how can nothing be anything when nothing is nothing?
