It is a system of arithmetic for integers where numbers " wrap around " when reaching a certain value called the modulus (mod).
Q1. 25 mod 2
Solution :

Q2. -8 mod 5
Solution :

Q3. 42 mod (-13)
Solution :

Q4. -42 mod (-13)
Solution :

Congruence Modulo :
Let 'a' and 'b' be two integers and n be an integer greater than 1, then a is said to be congruent to b modulo n if n divides the difference of a and b i.e. a ≡ b (mod n) if there exists an integer λ such that a - b = λn.
Properties of Modulo operation :
Addition:
1. If a + b = c then a(mod n) + b(mod n) = c(mod n)
2. If a ≡ b(mod n) then (a + k) ≡ (b + k) mod n, ∀ K ∈ I
3. If a ≡ b(mod n), c ≡ d(mod n) then (a + c) ≡ (b + d)(mod n)
4. If a ≡ b(mod n) then -a ≡ -b(mod n)
Q5. (576 + 789) mod 9
Solution :

Multiplication:
1. If a.b = c then a(mod n) . b(mod n) = c(mod n)
2. If a ≡ b(mod n) then Ka ≡ Kb(mod n)
3. If a ≡ b(mod n), c ≡ d(mod n) then ac = bd(mod n)
Q6. (489 x 813) mod 7
Solution :
