What is 80 mod 9?
Often represented by the operator "mod", the modulo is a mathematical operation that gives the remainder of an integer division.
The result of 80 mod 9 is 8.
How to compute 80 mod 9?
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)
- 80 / 9 = 8.8888888888889
- ⌊8.8888888888889⌋ = 8 (We only keep the integer part)
- 9 × 8 = 72
- 80 - 72 = 8 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)
In short: 80 − (9 × ⌊80 / 9⌋) = 8
Is 80 divisible by 9?
A number is said to be divisible by another number, if the remainder of the division is zero.
Given that the result of 80 mod 9 is 8, this indicates that dividing 80 by 9 leaves a remainder of 8. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 80 is not divisible by 9.
