We cannot divide by 0.
Take the classic example:
a = b
a^2 = b^2
a^2 + a^2 = a^2 + ab
2(a^2) = a^2 + ab
2(a^2) - 2ab = 2(a^2) + ab - 2ab
2(a^2) - 2ab = 2(a^2) - ab
2((a^2) - ab) = 1((a^2) - ab)
then divide by (a^2) - ab) to give 1 =2
The fallacy comes right at the end when dividing by 0. So, we cannot divide by zero, and 0^0 is 0/0 therefore it is Mathematically undefined.
