I don't understand why you can't divide by zero.

If you turn it into a word problem 10/1 could be stated as "If you have 10 things and put them in a bucket, how many things do you have in the bucket?"

10/2 becomes "If you have 10 things, and and put an equal amount of them in two different buckets, how many things are in each bucket?"

So, wouldn't 10/0 become "If you have 10 things, and don't put any of them into the bucket, how many things are in the bucket?"

I'm bad at math, go easy on me.
