C Exercises: Find the integral quotient and remainder of a division

Last update on December 20 2024 13:09:49 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a C program to calculate the integral quotient and remainder of a division.

Sample Solution:

C Code:

#include<stdio.h>      // Include the standard input/output header file.
#include<stdlib.h>     // Include the standard library header file.

int main ()          // Start of the main function.
{
long int n, d;    // Declare two long integer variables 'n' and 'd'.
ldiv_t result;    // Declare a variable of type ldiv_t to store the result of the division.

printf("\n Input numerator : ");   // Prompt the user to input the numerator.
scanf("%ld",&n);   // Read the user's input and store it in 'n'.

printf(" Input denominator : ");   // Prompt the user to input the denominator.
scanf("%ld",&d);   // Read the user's input and store it in 'd'.

result = ldiv (n,d);   // Perform the division using the ldiv function and store the result in 'result'.

printf (" quotient =  %ld, remainder = %ld.\n\n",result.quot,result.rem);   // Print the quotient and remainder.

return 0;   // Return 0 to indicate successful execution of the program.
}   // End of the main function.

Sample Output:

 Input numerator : 2500                                                                                       
 Input denominator : 235                                                                                      
 quotient =  10, remainder = 150.
