Google has become the go-to for diagnosing illnesses, finding recipes, and even answering odd questions such as "What's zero divided by zero?"

In fact, so many people typed "What's zero divided by zero?" into Google in 2015 that it's officially the most googled question of the year.

The onslaught of googling this seemingly obscure question arose following Siri's new injection of sassiness earlier this year.

If you ask Siri what zero divided by zero is, you'll get some unexpected responses.

Siri begins simply enough: "Imagine if you have zero cookies and you split them evenly between zero friends, how many cookies does each person get? See, it doesn't make sense."

But things quickly escalate with: "And Cookie Monster is sad there are no cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends."

Within Googles list of most searched questions in different categories, fashion's biggest query was "How to walk in heels", while the most googled artist was Adele.
