Question

Write an expression that evaluates to true if the value of the integer variable number of prizes is divisible (with no remainder) by the integer variable number of participants. (Assume that number of participants is not zero.)

Answer 1

Answer:

A=BQ

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find an expression, you can use the definition of the dividend in a division:

$A=BC + R$

where A is the dividend, B is the divisor, Q is the quotient (the result of the division) and R is the remainder of the division.

Let A represent the integer variable number of prizes and B represent the integer variable number of participants.

In this case R=0 and B≠0, therefore:

A=BQ

A is divisible by B if A can be written as an integer multiple of B. In other words, you have to find an integer number Q that multiplied by B produces A.
