What is 8 mod 70?
Often represented by the operator "mod", the modulo is a mathematical operation that gives the remainder of an integer division.
The result of 8 mod 70 is 8.
How to compute 8 mod 70?
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)
- 8 / 70 = 0.11428571428571
- ⌊0.11428571428571⌋ = 0 (We only keep the integer part)
- 70 × 0 = 0
- 8 - 0 = 8 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)
In short: 8 − (70 × ⌊8 / 70⌋) = 8
Is 8 divisible by 70?
A number is said to be divisible by another number, if the remainder of the division is zero.
Given that the result of 8 mod 70 is 8, this indicates that dividing 8 by 70 leaves a remainder of 8. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 8 is not divisible by 70.
