Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the value of 12 mod 5?
Correct Answer: 2
  • Step 1: Understand what 'mod' means. 'Mod' is short for 'modulus' and it tells us the remainder after dividing one number by another.
  • Step 2: Take the number 12 and divide it by 5.
  • Step 3: Calculate how many times 5 fits into 12. It fits 2 times because 5 times 2 is 10.
  • Step 4: Now, find out how much is left after taking away 10 from 12. This is done by subtracting: 12 - 10 = 2.
  • Step 5: The remainder is 2, so 12 mod 5 equals 2.
