Modulo Calculator

Solve a mod m = a − m·⌊a/m⌋ step by step — free modulo calculator with worked examples, real-world defaults and instant answers.

a mod m = a − m·⌊a/m⌋

Dividend aModulus m

100 mod 72

Quotient ⌊a/m⌋14

Decomposition100 = 7 × 14 + 2

1
How many whole times does m fit into a?
⌊100 / 7⌋ = 14
2
What's left over is the remainder:
100 − 7 × 14 = 2
3
Write the division identity:
100 = 7 × 14 + 2, 0 ≤ 2 < 7

Mod is clock arithmetic — 100 hours from now on a 7-day week lands 2 days ahead, because 100 mod 7 = 2. This tool returns the mathematician's non-negative remainder; note that many programming languages return −2 for −16 mod 7 instead of 5.

Frequently asked questions

What formula does the Modulo Calculator use?+

It uses a mod m = a − m·⌊a/m⌋. The steps section shows the formula with your actual numbers substituted, so you can follow (and verify) every stage of the calculation rather than trusting a black box.

What should I keep in mind when using this calculator?+

Is the Modulo Calculator free to use?+

Completely free, with no sign-up or limits. All computation happens client-side in your browser, so it is fast, private, and works even on slow connections once the page has loaded.

Can I use this for homework, teaching or exam prep?+

That is exactly what it is built for. The step-by-step working mirrors how solutions are presented in class, so you can check homework, build worked examples for teaching, or practise method recall before exams.
