What is 88 mod 8?

How to compute 88 mod 8?

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. 88 / 8 = 11
2. ⌊11⌋ = 11 (We only keep the integer part)
3. 8 × 11 = 88
4. 88 - 88 = 0 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 88 − (8 × ⌊88 / 8⌋) = 0

Is 88 divisible by 8?

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 8 is 0, this indicates that dividing 88 by 8 leaves no remainder. Therefore, yes, 88 is indeed divisible by 8.
