Mathematically speaking, if you have 0 apples, does that mean that 100% of your apples are red?

Very odd question I know but I am curious ._.

    WHAT apples ?? ------------------------

    If you have 100 apples and there are 100 red ones, they are 100% red.  (100 /100)

    If you have 1 apple and that one is red, then your apple(s) are 100% red  (1/1)

    If you have 0 apples and none of them are red, you want to say that they are  100% red (0/0).  

    Superficially this looks fine, but try dividing 0 by 0 on your calculator.  Or ,better yet, ask 'Siri'  to divide 0 by 0.  It does not work

    Corporate mathematics, you have twenty people working in a department, before one quarterly report you add ten people, increasing staff by 50%. After the report you remove ten people, saying that you reduced costs for the next quarter by 30%, keeping production at the same level. Atta boy's and a bonus for you.
