What is 88 mod 57?

Often represented by the operator "mod", the modulo is a mathematical operation that gives the remainder of an integer division.

The result of 88 mod 57 is 31.

How to compute 88 mod 57?

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:

Remainder = N − ( M × ⌊ N M ⌋ )

(where N is the dividend, M is the divisor and ⌊ N M ⌋ represents the integer part of the quotient)

  1. 88 / 57 = 1.5438596491228
  2. ⌊1.5438596491228⌋ = 1 (We only keep the integer part)
  3. 57 × 1 = 57
  4. 88 - 57 = 31 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 88 − (57 × ⌊88 / 57⌋) = 31

Is 88 divisible by 57?

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

Given that the result of 88 mod 57 is 31, this indicates that dividing 88 by 57 leaves a remainder of 31. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 88 is not divisible by 57.
