Well here is the explanation----
When we r multiplying 0 by a number, we r actually adding the number zero times. Which implies that we r not acyually considering that number at all.
As we r not considering those numbers in the equation, we cannot equate them.:D
 
0/0 has an infinite number of answers.
you can add or subtract zero as many times as you like, and no matter how many times you do it, it's not going to be incorrect.

some people say that zero is not a number, but a concept used to define nothing.
but then again, all numbers are just a concept. people use numbers to understand things which we would not be able to otherwise.

my methods teacher at the beginning of the year wrote a "2" on the board.
he then asked
"what is it?"
everybody said "it's a two"
then he rubs it off with his finger, and shows us the end of his finger, and asks "what is it?"

it's just a bit of matter on the end of his finger.
he then explains that, numbers are not actually real. they don't have a prescence in the universe, they're only used in the minds of people to try and understand things.
numbers are just a tool used to represent and understand things.

if we didn't use numbers, the biggest amount of things people would be able to remember there are, without some form of counting, is 3.
