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

Program to Compute Quotient and Remainder


#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.

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 is displayed using printf() function.
