The expression 0/0 is called:
AA defined value of zero always
BAn indeterminate form (further analysis needed)
CAn infinite value of the limit always
DA discontinuity by definition every time
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. An indeterminate form (further analysis needed)
0/0 is an INDETERMINATE FORM: the limit could equal anything (0, 1, ∞, or any number), and needs to be evaluated by other means (factoring, L'Hôpital, etc.).
**Other indeterminate forms:** ∞/∞, 0 × ∞, ∞ - ∞, 0⁰, 1^∞, ∞⁰.
