I didn't understand modulus % please explain me

Question

please help me please explain me detailed information

Answer 1

Modulus operator is used to find remainder.

If we divide 1.25 by .5 than, we can write:
1.25= .5*2(here .5*2=1)+.25 (here .25 is remainder, here further division approaches not followed as normal mathematical process follows, in normal mathematical process, we can write 1.25/.5 = 2.5)

hence,
1.25 divided by .5, quotient is 2 and .25 isn't divided by .5 so it is remainder.

above term is expressed by modulus sign (%),where % shows only remainder,not shows quotient.

it is expressed by
5%2 = 1
11%4 = 3
5%3 = 2
3%5 = 3
6%5 = 1
12%7 = 5
2%2 = 0
1.25%.5 = .25

Answer 2

i got it thanks for your help

Answer 3

5%2=1how please explain

Answer 4

@Sai Venkat,

if we divide 5 by 2, then we get 2 as quotient and 1 as remainder.

we can write
5 = 2*2+1

If we only show remainder,then we can write

5%2 = 1 (modulus sign % is used to show only remainder)

Answer 5

% operator gives you the remainder of your mathematical expressions.

look at it:

2 | 5 | 2
4
remainder: 1
