Please drag and drop the selected option in the right place or type it instead
0
undefined
Correct Answer
(1) 0
(2) undefined
Explanation
Rule 1: \(\frac{0}{\text{nonzero}} = 0\) — confirmed by the related multiplication: \(0 \times \text{nonzero} = 0\) ✓
Rule 2: \(\frac{\text{nonzero}}{0}\) is undefined — no number times 0 can produce a nonzero result.
