Maths homework = FAIL

OK, so Quinn is now learning about division in maths in Grade 4 and their homework was to practice division by 0, 1 & 2... Sounds simple enough right? .... Er no, think again!

I am sorry, I did up to 3rd year varsity maths, and last time I checked division by zero was mathematically impossible!!

So did the rules of physics change while I wasn't paying attention or what!? Wink Rolling Eyes

*shakes head*

I told Quinn to ask his teacher if she is insane, because it is not possible. I hope he actually doesn't.... Embarassed Laughing



Computer Says NO!

    Then why is Quintus learning this in Grade 3? I'm going to tell the school they must stop their crap and wait till next year ;)

    Divide by zero? Thankfully they don't teach them that!

    i also thought it was impossible- a "divide by zero" error makes a stored procedure for running a report fall over every time!
