Simplify the following:
42 mod 9
Also, does 9 divide 42?
Define modulus:
Remainder of a ÷ b
In this case, a = 42 and b = 9
Calculate whole number part:
9 goes into 42 a total of 4 times
9 x 4 = 36
Calculate remainder part:
Remainder = a - whole number
Remainder = 42 - 36
42 mod 9 ≡ 6
This means that 9 does not divide 42 → 9∤42
This means that 9 does not divide 42 → 9∤42
Excel or Google Sheets formula:
Excel or Google Sheets formula:=MOD(42,9)What is the Answer?
42 mod 9 ≡ 6
This means that 9 does not divide 42 → 9∤42
This means that 9 does not divide 42 → 9∤42
