Division by Zero/Historical Note

Historical Note on Division by Zero
stated that:
 * positive or negative divided by cipher is a fraction with that for denominator.

This was then referred to as quantity with zero as denominator.

writes in Ganita Sara Samgraha of c. $850$ CE:
 * A number multiplied by zero is zero and that number remains unchanged which is divided by, added to or diminished by zero.

which is of course seriously questionable.
