What is 29 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 29 mod 4 is 1.

How to compute 29 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. 29 / 4 = 7.25
  2. ⌊7.25⌋ = 7 (We only keep the integer part)
  3. 4 × 7 = 28
  4. 29 - 28 = 1 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 29 − (4 × ⌊29 / 4⌋) = 1

Is 29 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 29 mod 4 is 1, this indicates that dividing 29 by 4 leaves a remainder of 1. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 29 is not divisible by 4.
