C Program for Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division and Modulus of Two Numbers

• Write a program in c for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus of two numbers.

There are five fundamental arithmetic operators supported by C language, which are addition(+), subtraction(-), multiplication(*), division(/) and modulus(%) of two numbers. All arithmetic operators compute the result of specific arithmetic operation and returns its result.

Arithmetic Operators in C

C program for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus of two numbers

This program performs basic binary arithmetic operation on two integer operands like addition, subtraction, division and modulus and prints result in screen. It first takes two integers as input from user using scanf function and stores them in ‘firstNumber’ and ‘secondNumber’ int variables and performs addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus operations and stores results in ‘sum’, ‘difference’ , ‘product’, ‘quotient’ and ‘modulo’ variables respectively. Next, it prints the result on screen using printf function.

* and Modulus of two numbers

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
 
int main(){
    /* Variable declation */
    int firstNumber, secondNumber;
    int sum, difference, product, modulo;
    float quotient;
     
    /* Taking input from user and storing it in firstNumber and secondNumber */
    printf("Enter First Number: ");
    scanf("%d", &amp;firstNumber);
    printf("Enter Second Number: ");
    scanf("%d", &amp;secondNumber);
     
    /* Adding two numbers */
    sum = firstNumber + secondNumber;
    /* Subtracting two numbers */
    difference = firstNumber - secondNumber;
    /* Multiplying two numbers*/
    product = firstNumber * secondNumber;
    /* Dividing two numbers by typecasting one operand to float*/
    quotient = (float)firstNumber / secondNumber;
    /* returns remainder of after an integer division */
    modulo = firstNumber % secondNumber;
     
    printf("\nSum = %d", sum);
    printf("\nDifference  = %d", difference);
    printf("\nMultiplication = %d", product);
    printf("\nDivision = %.3f", quotient);
    printf("\nRemainder = %d", modulo);
     
    getch();
    return 0;
}

Program Output

Enter First Number: 25
Enter Second Number: 4

Sum = 29
Difference = 21
Multiplication = 100
Division = 6.250
Remainder = 1

Points to Remember

• If both operands are integers, then the output is also integer and the compiler neglects the term after decimal point.
• Integer/Float = Float and Float/Integer = Float because of explicit type conversion.
• Multiplication, division and modulus operator have highest priority than addition and subtraction operator.

C program for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus of two numbers using a function

This program uses five user defined functions ‘getSum’, ‘getDifference’, ‘getProduct’, ‘getQuotient’ and ‘getModulo’ to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus of two numbers.
