What is 64 mod 7?
Often represented by the operator "mod", the modulo is a mathematical operation that gives the remainder of an integer division.
The result of 64 mod 7 is 1.
How to compute 64 mod 7?
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:
(where N is the dividend, M is the divisor and represents the integer part of the quotient)
- 64 / 7 = 9.1428571428571
- ⌊9.1428571428571⌋ = 9 (We only keep the integer part)
- 7 × 9 = 63
- 64 - 63 = 1 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)
In short: 64 − (7 × ⌊64 / 7⌋) = 1
Is 64 divisible by 7?
A number is said to be divisible by another number, if the remainder of the division is zero.
Given that the result of 64 mod 7 is 1, this indicates that dividing 64 by 7 leaves a remainder of 1. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 64 is not divisible by 7.
