What is 96 mod 6?

How to compute 96 mod 6?

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. 96 / 6 = 16
2. ⌊16⌋ = 16 (We only keep the integer part)
3. 6 × 16 = 96
4. 96 - 96 = 0 (Subtracting gives us the remainder)

In short: 96 − (6 × ⌊96 / 6⌋) = 0

Is 96 divisible by 6?

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

Given that the result of 96 mod 6 is 0, this indicates that dividing 96 by 6 leaves no remainder. Therefore, yes, 96 is indeed divisible by 6.
