The value of expression with 00 in the denominator is undefined.

Explanation:

This expression has no value defined.

To prove that there is no such value let's assume that 6/0=x60=x for some real xx.

If we multiplied such equality by 00 we would get:

6=0xxx6=0×x

But this is not possible, because any real number multiplied by 00 is 00

So our assumption that 6/060 has a real value led us to contradiction, which means that the assumption is false i.e. Expression 6/060 has no defined value.
