What is difference between ‘/’ and ‘%’ operators in c++ ? Explain with a example.
Mathematical operators are used to perform basic mathematical operations. Addition(+), subtraction(-), diversion(/), multiplication(*) and modulus(%) are the basic mathematical operators.

Modulus operators cannot be used with floating-point number.


'/ ' Divides numerator by the de-numerator .

Example : Assume variable A holds 10 and variable B holds 20 then, 
       
                    B / A will give 2

' % ' Modulus operator and remainder of after an integer division.

Example : Assume variable A holds 10 and variable B holds 20 then,

                    B % A will give 0
