What is the difference between Forward Slash ' / ' and Modulo ' % ' ? (Pyhton Language)

I've found that the output of operation with both Forward Slash ' / ' and Modulo ' % ' have the same function which will produce floats. But why they are different? I still don't get the meaning. Somebody please help me to find out the answer

/ is for division purpose while % is used to find reminder.

forward' / ' will give the quotient of operation modulo will give the reminder of operation for example 10/2 = 5 10%2=0(gives reminder)

Forward slash(/) gives the answer in float, while modulo(%) divides and gives the remainder.

To determine the quotient and remainder of a division, use the floor division and modulo operators, respectively. Floor division is done using two forward slashes. The modulo operator is carried out with a percent symbol (%).
