How to divide sum into equal parts with last one being remainder(if necessary)? JAVASCRIPT

Question

Example:
var a = sum; // 479,25
var b = divider number; // 6

So that programs result would display:
79,88
79,88
79,88
79,88
79,88
79,85

It could also display:
80
80
80
80
80
79,25

Both is right, as long as the sum of divided parts is still equal to 479,25.

Answer 1

Hi F.M.
I see you have posted 3 questions over this topic. Just curious as to why, I saw people answering your question, so, you gotta have a good reason for reposting this topic, I guess.

Answer 2

Hi Ipang,
I deleted one post now. I posted them because, so far, I didn’t get the solution. Do you have it?

Answer 3

Well, I kinda do,
But you only have 1 test case (479.25 divided by 6)
I don't know how my idea will work when a different number is given to test.

Anyways, you got a code this far?

(Edit)
This is my idea for code

Answer 4

I don’t..
Here is another example:
var a = 97.82; // total bill
var b = 4; // no. of installments
var c = a/b; /* which is 97,82/4 = 24,455 - with .toFixed(2) it’s 24,46 */

But now, the sum of 4 installments = 97.84.

So I need different way, to divide installments into 4 amounts. The amounts could also display 3 same amounts with the last one being the remainder of the total sum(97.82).

Answer 5

I think, I understand the task now.
Here's an attempt (though not js), see my comments in the script.

Answer 6

Hi divyanshu kumar .
Your code is in the right direction.
But it shows me only one number. In this case the result shows:
11
But, what I would like show is:
9
9
11
How to do that?
