Explanation:
We are given a list of modular arithmetic problems. For each expression like “a mod b”, we need to find the remainder when
a is divided by
b.
Recall:
- The result of `a mod b` is the remainder after dividing `a` by `b`.
- It must be a non-negative integer less than `b`.
- Example: `17 mod 9 = 8`, because 9 × 1 = 9, and 17 − 9 = 8.
Let’s go one by one:
a. 17 mod 9
17 ÷ 9 = 1 remainder 8 →
8
b. 11 mod 6
11 ÷ 6 = 1 remainder 5 →
5
c. 26 mod 4
26 ÷ 4 = 6 × 4 = 24, remainder 2 →
2
d. 24 mod 10
24 ÷ 10 = 2 × 10 = 20, remainder 4 →
4
e. 18 mod 11
18 − 11 = 7 →
7
f. 18 mod 8
18 ÷ 8 = 2 × 8 = 16, remainder 2 →
2
g. 3 mod 9
3 < 9, so remainder is just 3 →
3
h. 30 mod 12
12 × 2 = 24, 30 − 24 = 6 →
6
i. 20 mod 14
14 × 1 = 14, 20 − 14 = 6 →
6
j. 99 mod 10
Any number mod 10 is its last digit → 99 ends in 9 →
9
k. 32 mod 7
7 × 4 = 28, 32 − 28 = 4 →
4
l. 9 mod 12
9 < 12 → remainder is 9 →
9
m. 33 mod 6
6 × 5 = 30, 33 − 30 = 3 →
3
n. 46 mod 10
Last digit of 46 is 6 →
6
o. 50 mod 9
9 × 5 = 45, 50 − 45 = 5 →
5
p. 32 mod 13
13 × 2 = 26, 32 − 26 = 6 →
6
q. 33 mod 8
8 × 4 = 32, 33 − 32 = 1 →
1
r. 26 mod 11
11 × 2 = 22, 26 − 22 = 4 →
4
s. 19 mod 13
13 × 1 = 13, 19 − 13 = 6 →
6
t. 13 mod 8
8 × 1 = 8, 13 − 8 = 5 →
5
u. 21 mod 6
6 × 3 = 18, 21 − 18 = 3 →
3
v. 17 mod 7
7 × 2 = 14, 17 − 14 = 3 →
3
w. 20 mod 13
13 × 1 = 13, 20 − 13 = 7 →
7
x. 7 mod 8
7 < 8 → remainder is 7 →
7
y. 21 mod 12
12 × 1 = 12, 21 − 12 = 9 →
9
z. 21 mod 12 — same as y? Wait! Look again:
The list shows:
- y. 21mod12
- z. 21mod12
That seems like a duplicate. But since both are “21 mod 12”, answer is still
9.
Let me double-check all calculations quickly:
a. 17−9=8
✔
b. 11−6=5
✔
c. 26−24=2
✔
d. 24−20=4
✔
e. 18−11=7
✔
f. 18−16=2
✔
g. 3
✔
h. 30−24=6
✔
i. 20−14=6
✔
j. 99→9
✔
k. 32−28=4
✔
l. 9
✔
m. 33−30=3
✔
n. 46→6
✔
o. 50−45=5
✔
p. 32−26=6
✔
q. 33−32=1
✔
r. 26−22=4
✔
s. 19−13=6
✔
t. 13−8=5
✔
u. 21−18=3
✔
v. 17−14=3
✔
w. 20−13=7
✔
x. 7
✔
y. 21−12=9
✔
z. same as y → 9
✔
All correct.
