What is 43 mod 16?

How to compute 43 mod 16?

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:

$\mathrm{Remainder}=N-(M\times \lfloor \frac{N}{M}\rfloor )$

(where N is the dividend, M is the divisor and $\lfloor \frac{N}{M}\rfloor$ represents the integer part of the quotient)

1. 43 / 16 = 2.6875
2. ⌊2.6875⌋ = 2 (We only keep the integer part)
3. 16 × 2 = 32
4. 43 - 32 = 11 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 43 − (16 × ⌊43 / 16⌋) = 11

Is 43 divisible by 16?

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

Given that the result of 43 mod 16 is 11, this indicates that dividing 43 by 16 leaves a remainder of 11. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 43 is not divisible by 16.
