Answer

↓Steps Explained:↓

Simplify the following:

65 mod 3

Also, does 3 divide 65?

Define modulus:

Remainder of a ÷ b

In this case, a = 65 and b = 3

Calculate whole number part:

3 goes into 65 a total of 21 times

3 x 21 = 63

Calculate remainder part:

Remainder = a - whole number

Remainder = 65 - 63

Final Answer

65 mod 3 ≡ 2
This means that 3 does not divide 65 → 3∤65
