Enter a mod b statement(s)

Simplify the following:

387 mod 6

Also, does 6 divide 387?

Define modulus:

Remainder of a ÷ b

In this case, a = 387 and b = 6

Calculate whole number part:

6 goes into 387 a total of 64 times

6 x 64 = 384

Calculate remainder part:

Remainder = a - whole number

Remainder = 387 - 384

Final Answer


387 mod 6 ≡ 3
This means that 6 does not divide 387 → 6∤387
