Zero in Mathematics Zero as a number is incredibly tricky to deal with. Though zero provides us with some useful mathematical tools‚ such as calculus‚ it presents some problems that if approached incorrectly‚ lead to a breakdown of mathematics as we know it. Adding‚ subtracting and multiplying by zero are straightforward. If c is a real number‚ c+0=c c-0=c c x 0=0 These facts are widely known and regarded to hold true in every situation. However‚ division by zero is a far more complicated

To do this‚ let us begin by making two distinctions. The first concerns the nature of propositions. An analytic proposition is one that is true by definition. A synthetic proposition is any proposition that is not analytic. So we can say that every proposition is either analytic or synthetic. The second distinction concerns how we
