DIVISION ALGORITHM
THEOREM
Given integers a and b, b>0, then there exist
unique integers q and r satisfying,
a = bq + r , 0 r b.
The integers q and r are called quotient and
remainder in the division of a and b.
Division Algorithm for non-negative integers
Input some non-negative integer a and some
natural number b, output integers q and r such
that a = bq + r , 0 r b.
Input:
A non-negative a and natural number b
Output:
Two integers q and r such that a = bq + r , 0 r b.
1. If a < b then return 0, a
2. Let q = 0
3. Let r = a
4. Repeat
a. let r = r – b
b. let q = q + 1
5. Until r < b
6. Return q,r
Consider a = 20, b = 3
a < b3 is false
1. 20
2. Let q = 0
3. Let r = 20a
4. First Fourth
a. let r = r – b = 20 - 3 = 17 a. let r = r – b = 11 - 3 = 8
b. let q = q + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1 b. let q = q + 1 = 3 + 1 = 4
Second Fifth
a. let r = r – b = 17 - 3 = 14 a. let r = r – b = 8 - 3 = 5
b. let q = q + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 b. let q = q + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5
Third Sixth
a. let r = r – b = 14 - 3 = 11 a. let r = r – b = 5 - 3 = 2
b. let q = q + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 b. let q = q + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
Consider a = 20, b = 3
r=2 q=6
r<b q = 6, r = 2
Return q,r
a = bq + r
Therefore, 20 = 3 6 + 2
Consider a = 30, b = 8
a<8
1. 30 b is false
2. Let q = 0
3. Let r = 30
a
4. First
a. let r = r – b = 30 - 8 = 22 r=6 q=3
b. let q = q + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1
Second r<b q = 3, r = 6
a. let r = r – b = 22 - 8 = 14 Return q,r
b. let q = q + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 a = bq + r
Third
Therefore, 30 = 8 3 + 6
a. let r = r – b = 14 - 8 = 6
b. let q = q + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3
Division Algorithm for negative integers
Input some negative integer a and some
natural number b output integers q and r such
that a = bq + r , 0 r b.
Input:
A negative number a and natural number b
Output:
Two integers q and r such that a = bq + r , 0 r b.
1. Let q = 0
2. Let r = a
3. Repeat
a. let r = r + b
b. let q = q - 1
4. Until r 0
5. Return q,r
Consider a = -27, b = 7 Fourth
1. Let q = 0 a. let r = r + b = -6 + 7 = 1
2. Let r = -27
a b. let q = q - 1 = -3 - 1 = -4
3. First
a. let r = r + b = -27 + 7 = -20 r = 1 q = -4
b. let q = q - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1
Second r 0 q = -4,r = 1
a. let r = r + b = -20 + 7 = -13 Return q,r
b. let q = q - 1 = -1 - 1 = -2 a = bq + r
Third
Therefore, -27 = 7 (-4) + 1
a. let r = r + b =-13 + 7 = -6
b. let q = q - 1 = -2 - 1 = -3
Consider a = -20, b = 7
1. Let q = 0
2. Let r = a-20
3. First
a. let r = r + b = -20 + 7 = -13 r=1 q = -3
b. let q = q - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1
Second r 0 q = -3,r = 1
a. let r = r + b = -13 + 7 = -6 Return q,r
b. let q = q - 1 = -1 - 1 = -2 a = bq + r
Third
Therefore, -20 = 7 (-3) + 1
a. let r = r + b = -6 + 7 = 1
b. let q = q - 1 = -2 - 1 = -3
