7%2 is basically the remainders: How many tines do 2 go into 7 (2 4 6), it goes in 3x and 1 is left to react it so the answer is 1. When % is uses they are asking for the remainder, but when / is used they are asking how may time does this integer go into this integer. int x = 5; int y = 11; int z = y/x; //z = 2 int u = y%x; /*u = 1 as it's 1 number away from the given integer */

The '%' sign is what we called 'Modulus' operator or in other words, it's called the remainder... It summarize the 7/2, which is the answer is a float (6.5) but when we apply the law of division, 7 divided by 2 is 6 r 1.. So that 1 is the modulus no.

It is a modulus operator ....to get the reminder....here 7%2....the reminder is 1 so by using this operator we got the answer as 1....😀

It is nothing but remainder 7=3(2)+1 7-Divident 2-Divisor 3-Quotient 1-Remainder
