What is a remainder?
When you divide integers, the remainder is what's left over after taking out as many complete groups as possible. The relationship is:
Where the remainder is always less than the divisor (and has the same sign as the dividend).
Example: 17 divided by 5
Dividing 17 by 5:
The quotient is 3 (five goes into 17 three times) and the remainder is 2.
Remainder vs. modulo
The remainder and modulo operations give the same result for positive numbers, but differ for negatives. This calculator uses the remainder (truncated division), which matches how most calculators work. For modulo operations, see the modulo calculator.
