and remainder 44 mod 8 = 4. b) Since 21 · 37 = 777‚ we have quotient 777 div 21 = 37 and remainder 777 mod 21 = 0 . c) As above‚ we can compute 123 div 19 = 6 and 123 mod 19 = 9. However‚ since the dividend is negative and the remainder is nonzero‚ the quotient is −(6 + 1) = −7 and the remainder is 19 − 9 = 10. To check that −123 div 19 = −7 and −123 mod 19 = 10 ‚ we note that −123 = (−7)(19) + 10. d) Since 1 div 23 = 0 and 1 mod 23 = 1 ‚ we have −1 div 23 = −1 and −1 mod 23 = 22 . e) Since
