It depends what You are doing.
You may use IF function, for instance. Assuming that You want to divide
value in cell A2 by value in B2 You may write a following formula:
=IF(B2=0,0,A2/B2)
It will check if value in B2 equals 0 and if so return 0, if the opposite
return result of A2/B2.

Hi courtesio99!

Here's an example of the standard approach:

=IF(ISERROR(A1/A2),"",A1/A2)

But make sure that you are happy with the errors that you are hiding.
