Easy Way to Calculate Remainder of Long Division

       Most of the calculators unable to calulate Remainder of long division.
Today I am going to show you a easy way to Calculate Remainder of Long Division using square-and-multiply algorithm.

Consider example as (25)17 % 77

As we know,
            2517 = 2516 x 251
So we perform steps as follows:
            251 % 77 = 25
            252 % 77 = 9
            254 % 77 = 92 % 77 = 4
            258 % 77 = 42 % 77 = 16
            2516 % 77 = 162 % 77 =25

Since, 17 = 16 + 1 we stopped after 2516 % 77

 Final computation,
            (25)17 % 77 = { [ (25)16 % 77 ] x [ (25)1 % 77 ] } % 77
                                = { 25x25 } % 77
                                = 9


 Happy Coding With Mathematics!
