I won't give you the exact answer, but I'll explain how it works. % is called the modulus operator. It gives the remainder of the first value divided by the second value. So what is the remainder of 8 / 5? 5 goes into 8 however many times, and then what's left of 8?

The answer is 3. 8 divided by 5 is 1. with a remainder of 3. So the output of your code is 3.
