Python Program to find the Quotient and Remainder of two numbers

Given two numbers n and m. The task is to find the quotient and remainder of two numbers by dividing n by m.

Examples:

Input:
n = 10
m = 3
Output:
Quotient:  3
Remainder 1

Input
n = 99
m = 5
Output:
Quotient:  19
Remainder 4

Method 1: Naive approach

The naive approach is to find the quotient using the double division (//) operator and remainder using the modulus (%) operator.

Example:

Python3

# Python program to find the
# quotient and remainder

def find(n, m):

    # for quotient
    q = n//m
    print("Quotient: ", q)

    # for remainder
    r = n%m
    print("Remainder", r)

# Driver Code
find(10, 3)
find(99, 5)

Output:

Quotient:  3
Remainder 1
Quotient:  19
Remainder 4

Time Complexity: O(1)

Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Method 2: Using divmod() method

Divmod() method takes two numbers as parameters and returns the tuple containing both quotient and remainder.

Example:

Python3

# Python program to find the
# quotient and remainder using
# divmod() method


q, r = divmod(10, 3)
print("Quotient: ", q)
print("Remainder: ", r)

q, r = divmod(99, 5)
print("Quotient: ", q)
print("Remainder: ", r)

Output:

Quotient:  3
Remainder 1
Quotient:  19
Remainder 4

Time Complexity: O(1)

Auxiliary Space: O(1)
