What is 95 mod 7?
Often represented by the operator "mod", the modulo is a mathematical operation that gives the remainder of an integer division.
The result of 95 mod 7 is 4.
How to compute 95 mod 7?
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)
- 95 / 7 = 13.571428571429
- ⌊13.571428571429⌋ = 13 (We only keep the integer part)
- 7 × 13 = 91
- 95 - 91 = 4 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)
In short: 95 − (7 × ⌊95 / 7⌋) = 4
Is 95 divisible by 7?
A number is said to be divisible by another number, if the remainder of the division is zero.
Given that the result of 95 mod 7 is 4, this indicates that dividing 95 by 7 leaves a remainder of 4. Therefore, no, since the remainder isn't zero, 95 is not divisible by 7.
