Simplify the following:
256 mod 8633
Also, does 8633 divide 256?
Define modulus:
Remainder of a ÷ b
In this case, a = 256 and b = 8633
Calculate whole number part:
8633 goes into 256 a total of 0 times
8633 x 0 = 0
Calculate remainder part:
Remainder = a - whole number
Remainder = 256 - 0
Final Answer
256 mod 8633 ≡ 256
This means that 8633 does not divide 256 → 8633∤256
This means that 8633 does not divide 256 → 8633∤256
