  2. Remainder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remainder

    In this case, s is called the least absolute remainder. [3] As with the quotient and remainder, k and s are uniquely determined, except in the case where d = 2n and s = ± n. For this exception, we have: a = k⋅d + n = (k + 1)d − n. A unique remainder can be obtained in this case by some convention—such as always taking the positive value ...

  3. Casting out nines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting_out_nines

    Adding the decimal digits of a positive whole number, while optionally ignoring any 9s or digits which sum to 9 or a multiple of 9. The result of this procedure is a number which is smaller than the original whenever the original has more than one digit, leaves the same remainder as the original after division by nine, and may be obtained from ...

  4. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

  5. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    A repeating decimal or recurring decimal is a decimal representation of a number whose digits are eventually periodic (that is, after some place, the same sequence of digits is repeated forever); if this sequence consists only of zeros (that is if there is only a finite number of nonzero digits), the decimal is said to be terminating, and is not considered as repeating.

  6. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    The division with remainder or Euclidean division of two natural numbers provides an integer quotient, which is the number of times the second number is completely contained in the first number, and a remainder, which is the part of the first number that remains, when in the course of computing the quotient, no further full chunk of the size of ...

  7. Long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_division

    Find the location of all decimal points in the dividend n and divisor m. If necessary, simplify the long division problem by moving the decimals of the divisor and dividend by the same number of decimal places, to the right (or to the left), so that the decimal of the divisor is to the right of the last digit.

  8. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    Calculate the remainders left by each product on dividing by 7. Add these remainders. The remainder of the sum when divided by 7 is the remainder of the given number when divided by 7. For example: The number 194,536 leaves a remainder of 6 on dividing by 7. The number 510,517,813 leaves a remainder of 1 on dividing by 7.

  9. Check digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_digit

    If the remainder is equal to 0 then use 0 as the check digit, and if not 0 subtract the remainder from 10 to derive the check digit. A GS1 check digit calculator and detailed documentation is online at GS1's website. [5] Another official calculator page shows that the mechanism for GTIN-13 is the same for Global Location Number/GLN. [6]
