Find Division of two numbers without using ‘/’ operator in C

Find Division of two numbers without using ‘/’ operator in C

In this tutorial, we will discuss the concept of Find Division of two numbers without using ‘/’ operator in C

In this topic, we are going to learn how to divide two numbers without using divisional operator in C programming language

What is division

The division is a method of splitting a group of things into equal parts. The division is an arithmetic operation inverse of multiplication

It is one of the four basic operation of arithmetic calculation others being addition,subtraction,multiplication

The division of two natural numbers means it is the operation of calculating the number of times one number is contained within one another

 

C exercise to Divide two numbers

Program to division of two numbers

The program calculates the division of the given two numbers without using divisional operator in C language

Program 1

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int division(int,int);   //function prototype / declaration
int main()
{
    int num1,num2,a,b,count=0;//variable declaration
    printf("Enter two number to find division\n");
//ask input from the user
    scanf("%d %d",&a,&b);  //numbers receive from the user

   num1=a;//Assign the value of num1 to a
   num2=b;//Assign the value of num2 to b
   while(num1>=num2)
   {
       num1=num1-num2;
       count++;
   }
    //function call
    printf("division of %d and %d is %d\n",a,b,count);
    getch();
    return 0;
}

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result

Enter to numbers to find division
225
25
Division of 225 and 25 is: 9

 

 

Program to division of two numbers – Entered by user

Program 2

The program allows the user to enter two integer numbers and then it calculates the division of the given numbers without using the division  operator in C language

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int division(int,int);   //function prototype / declaration
int main()
{
    int num1,num2,a,b,count=0;
    printf("Enter two number to find division\n");
    scanf("%d %d",&a,&b);  //numbers receive from the user

   num1=a;
   num2=b;
  int div=num1+num2;
   while(div>num2){
        div=div-num2;
   count++;
   }
    //function call
    printf("division of %d and %d is %d\n",a,b,count);
    getch();
    return 0;
}

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result

Enter to numbers to find division
550
25
Division of 225 and 25 is: 22
