What is 73 mod 1?

How to compute 73 mod 1?

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. 73 / 1 = 73
2. ⌊73⌋ = 73 (We only keep the integer part)
3. 1 × 73 = 73
4. 73 - 73 = 0 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 73 − (1 × ⌊73 / 1⌋) = 0

Is 73 divisible by 1?

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

Given that the result of 73 mod 1 is 0, this indicates that dividing 73 by 1 leaves no remainder. Therefore, yes, 73 is indeed divisible by 1.
