What do you mean by 0/something or 0/a?

Let us start from basics:

Suppose a and b are two positive real numbers, (I am taking positive real numbers because I have to explain it practically)

a/b means the no of parts of a each having a length equal to b ( I am taking a as a length of a whole rope);

So, this was the physical meaning of division, now coming back to your question;

Put a=0,

Question: What is the no. of parts of 0 each having a length b ?

Answer: There is no part of 0 having a length equal to b?

That means 0/b=0.

Hope I conveyed it successfully.
