What is 24 mod 4?

Often represented by the operator "mod", the modulo is a mathematical operation that gives the remainder of an integer division.

The result of 24 mod 4 is 0.

How to compute 24 mod 4?

The simplest approach is to use the "mod" operator (often denoted as "%" in many programming languages), but you could do it manually in the following way:

Remainder = N ( M × N M )

(where N is the dividend, M is the divisor and N M represents the integer part of the quotient)

  1. 24 / 4 = 6
  2. ⌊6⌋ = 6 (We only keep the integer part)
  3. 4 × 6 = 24
  4. 24 - 24 = 0 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 24 − (4 × ⌊24 / 4⌋) = 0

Is 24 divisible by 4?

A number is said to be divisible by another number, if the remainder of the division is zero.

Given that the result of 24 mod 4 is 0, this indicates that dividing 24 by 4 leaves no remainder. Therefore, yes, 24 is indeed divisible by 4.
