7/4 is taken as 1. So it is 1%64 which is 1

No it is still performing the same operation of giving remainder

so if % is in an equation 7/4% (8*8) then what is it doing here%

I have same problem when finding an integer which is multiple of six plus one. So I use n%6-1==0 . However the result of 1%6 give me 1 which is wrong. So I use n%6-1==0 and n/6>=1 to solve the problem

try putting 6-1 in paranthesis here % is having more precedence than +operation that is % is done first when n=1,1%6=1 and then 1-1=0 that's why u r getting result as one

n%(6-1) or simply put 5 instead but o/p will be 5

what happens to the 64 then does % make the rest of the equation voided
