Find Quotient & Remainder - Java Program

Java

import java.util.Scanner;
 
public class QuotientRemainder {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
 
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
 
        // Taking input from the user
        System.out.print("Enter dividend: ");
        int dividend = sc.nextInt();
 
        System.out.print("Enter divisor: ");
        int divisor = sc.nextInt();
 
        // Checking for division by zero
        if (divisor == 0) {
            System.out.println("Error: Divisor cannot be zero!");
            sc.close();
            return;
        }
 
        // Calculating quotient and remainder
        int quotient = dividend / divisor;
        int remainder = dividend % divisor;
 
        // Displaying the result
        System.out.println("\nQuotient = " + quotient);
        System.out.println("Remainder = " + remainder);
 
        sc.close();
    }
}

Output

 
OUTPUT 1:
Enter dividend: 43
Enter divisor: 5

Quotient = 8
Remainder = 3

Explanation

Dividend

The number to be divided (example: 43)

Divisor

The number that divides the dividend (example: 5)

Quotient Calculation

The quotient is the result of integer division:

43 / 5 = 8

It does not include decimal part.

Remainder Calculation

The remainder is the value left after division:

43 % 5 = 3

The % operator returns the remainder.

Division by Zero Handling

Division by zero is not allowed, so the program checks:

if (divisor == 0)

If true, it stops the program with an error message.
