C Program to Compute Quotient and Remainder (example)

C Program to Compute Quotient and Remainder

This program evaluates the quotprient and remainder when an integer is divided by another integer.
Remainder and quotient calculation


#include <stdio.h>
int main(){

    int dividend, divisor, quotient, remainder;

    printf("Enter dividend: ");
    scanf("%d", &dividend);

    printf("Enter divisor: ");
    scanf("%d", &divisor);

    // Computes quotient
    quotient = dividend / divisor;

    // Computes remainder
    remainder = dividend % divisor;

    printf("Quotient = %d\n", quotient);
    printf("Remainder = %d", remainder);

    return 0;
}

Output
Enter dividend: 25
Enter divisor: 4
Quotient = 6
Remainder = 1
In this program, user is asked to enter two integers (dividend and divisor) which is stored in variable dividend and divisor respectively.
Then the quotient is evaluated using division / operator and stored in variable quotient.
Similarly, the remainder is evaluated using modulus % operator and stored in remainder variable.
Finally, the quotient and remainder are displayed using printf() function.
