Question

What is the output of this code?
int a = 9%5%5;
System.out.println(a);
The supposed answer is "4".
Could anyone explain me why? Actually, 9%5 = 4; then, 4%5=0? Or am I wrong?

Answer 1

9%5=4
4%5=4

when 4 is divided by 5, the remainder is 4

Answer 2

thankyou for your answer! So if we try to use % with a smaller and a bigger number, the output will be a smaller number, right?
for example, 10%15=10?

Answer 3

Answer 5
