Special Cases

Special Cases :

Given below are three special cases of division.

• Any number is divided by 1(the quotient equals the dividend), gives the answer the same as the dividend. For examples: 10 ÷ 1 = 10
• A number cannot be divided by 0 and the result is thus undefined. Example: 60 ÷ 0 = undefined (but 0 ÷ 60 = 0)
• When the dividend equals the divisor, which means the same numbers but not 0, then the answer is always 1. For examples: 41 ÷ 41 = 1
