In this article we will see the use of modulus operator in Java.

Java Program on Division Operator

Modulo operator java: Division operator is a binary operator and it is used to divide two numbers and it returns the reminder value. Modulus operator is represented by the % symbol.

Syntax: operand % operand

Example:

Let’s understand it more clearly.

Suppose we have 2 variables a and b.

a=20

b=5

Then we can use modulus operator like this.

result = a % b;  // here 2 variable operands are divided and reminder is returned.

result = 20%5=0

(or)

result = 14 % b; // here one constant operand i.e. 14 and variable operand i.e. ‘b‘ divided and reminder is returned.

result= 14%5=4

Program:

import java.io.*;
 
class Main 
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        //Declaring variables
        int number1 = 39;
        int number2 = 2;
        //dividing two numbers by using division operator
        int result = number1%number2;
        
        //print results
        System.out.println("By performing modulus operation: " + result);
    }
}
Output:

By performing modulus operation: 1
