A #DIV/0! error occurs when you try to divide a number by zero. To fix this, you can use the `IFERROR` function to handle the error. For example, `=IFERROR(A1/B1, 0)` will display a zero instead of the error if B1 is zero. Alternatively, use `IF` statements to check if the denominator is zero and return a different value if it is.
