All the people trying to explain why division and multiplication are the same and dividing by fractions bla bla bla…

But it’s missing the point that a cell dividing is nothing like algebraic division so the analogy just doesn’t make sense.

Saying its “dividing in half” so its actually “x/0.5 = 2x” doesn’t make any sense because the phrase “divide in half” in every other context means “x/2”…

Any ways if you want to model a cell dividing you should use an exponential
