Simplify the following:
12 mod 11
Also, does 11 divide 12?
Define modulus:
Remainder of a ÷ b
In this case, a = 12 and b = 11
Calculate whole number part:
11 goes into 12 a total of 1 times
11 x 1 = 11
Calculate remainder part:
Remainder = a - whole number
Remainder = 12 - 11
Final Answer
12 mod 11 ≡ 1
This means that 11 does not divide 12 → 11∤12
This means that 11 does not divide 12 → 11∤12
