What is 35 mod 5?

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

The result of 35 mod 5 is 0.

How to compute 35 mod 5?

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. 35 / 5 = 7
  2. ⌊7⌋ = 7 (We only keep the integer part)
  3. 5 × 7 = 35
  4. 35 - 35 = 0 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 35 − (5 × ⌊35 / 5⌋) = 0

Is 35 divisible by 5?

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

Given that the result of 35 mod 5 is 0, this indicates that dividing 35 by 5 leaves no remainder. Therefore, yes, 35 is indeed divisible by 5.
