I've already made 5 100's since i made that zero

An infinite number. You will never get back to 100 after getting a zero.....you might get very very close, but you cannot get back to it unless you have a grade higher than 100.

Not many.
Assuming you can get 100s (which I find doubtful) and assuming they are worth the same overall. And assuming the passing grade is 60%, all you need is 2 100s.
100 + 0 = 100
100/2 = 50.
100 + 100 + 0 = 200
200/3 = 66.666666
Basically, the more grades you get after the 0, the easier it is. You need a minimum of 2 grades, in which case it has to be an average of 90. (90*2 = 180 /3 = 60)
In fact, you can easily figure it out with an equation.
You want to have 60 as a grade, so you need to get an X grade on Y number of exams plus the 0.
So basically what you want is:
60 = X/(Y+1)
Replace Y by the number of exams left. Hell, you can even figure out what grades you have to get to have a higher average by replacing the 60 by an 80. If your X is over 100, you know that it does not work.
But this is probably too complicated for you... I just felt like throwing in an easy way to track what grades to get.
It could even be expressed as a graph:

Depends on what you want to bring it up to: 1 will bring your average to 50; 2, to almost 70; 3, to 75; 4, to 80; 5, to 83. It might also help to see if you can get in some extra credit.

Quite a few. It's very hard to make up a zero. How did you get a zero? Except for not turning it in, I don't think I've ever given an actual zero that stood.

Nine 100's and one zero average a 90. But you have no hope of getting nine 100's if you couldn't figure that out for yourself.

about three 100s or two will make up a 0

It depends how much was the test worth... if it was not worth a lot u don't need to worry bout it but if it is worth a lot then you have 2 get gud marks... ask your teacher how much was the test worth because u'll never come to know how many 100's u need until u know the weightage of the test

interesting. well assuming its a straight scale grading system, you can never get 100% at the end.
If you wanted 99%, you'd have to get "100" points 99 more times....
but....getting more than 100 on your papers could eventually get you there

It depends on how much each paper counts towards your final grade. You should probably talk with your teacher about your concern about your grade. The teacher will help you know the best way to improve your scores.

What are you trying to get to?
3 will get you to 75%
4 will get you to 80%
9 will get you to 90%
19 will get 95...
