ZeroDivisionError: float division error in python

I'm working on my python script for xbmc media application so I can update the text label with the percent string. I have set the label text with "0%" for the start, but I have no idea how to update the label text with "1%", "10%", "20%" and so on.

When I try this:

progressStartTime = datetime.datetime.now()
delta = datetime.datetime.now() - progressStartTime
secondsLeft = int(delta.seconds) / float(percentageComplete) * (100.0 - 
percentageComplete)

if secondsLeft > 30:
  secondsLeft -= secondsLeft % 10
  self.setControlLabel(self.main_loading_time_left, "" % secondsLeft)

I'm having trouble with update the text in the label where I'm getting an error. The error I'm getting is: ZeroDivisionError: float division

The error are jumping on this line: 

secondsLeft = int(delta.seconds) / float(percentageComplete) * (100.0 
- percentageComplete)

Can you please help me how I can update the text in the label with the percent string?

Edit: Here is the update code:

percentageComplete = 0

if percentageComplete < 1:
   self.getControl(4202).setLabel("1%")


progressStartTime = datetime.datetime.now()
delta = datetime.datetime.now() - progressStartTime
secondsLeft = int(delta.seconds) * (100.0 - percentageComplete)

if percentageComplete > 1:
   secondsLeft -= secondsLeft % 10
   self.getControl(4202).setLabel(secondsLeft + "%")
   #self.setControlLabel(self.main_loading_time_left, "%" % secondsLeft)

You can't determine what time is left when you're at 0%. Exclude that case with a if case.
