Remainder operation:
A mod b = c means "integer a is divided by integer b, and the remainder is c".
Calculation formula of remainder:
Where is the rounding operator? Rounding down operation, called Floor in English, is represented by mathematical symbols.
For example:? 3.476? =3,? 6.7546? =6,? -3. 14 159? =-4,
Example 1: 5 120 is divided by a two-digit number, and the remainder is 64. Find this two-digit number.
Analysis and solutions:
According to the property (2), divisor × quotient = dividend-remainder.
5 120-64=5056, which should be an integer multiple of the divisor. 5056 is decomposed into prime factors, and 5056=64×79 is obtained.
According to the property (1), the divisor should be greater than 64, then the divisor is a two-digit number, and the divisor is between 67 and 99.
The divisor of 5056 is only 79, so this two-digit number is 79.
