You asked:

Evaluate \(28 - 13\) modulo \(3\)

MathBot Answer:

\[28 - 13 \bmod 3 = 0\]


Given two numbers \(a\) and \(n\), \(a\) modulo \(n\) (often written \(a \bmod n\)) is the remainder when \(a\) is divided by \(n\).

\(\dfrac{28 - 13}{3} = \dfrac{15}{3} = 5\) with remainder \(0\)
Therefore \(28 - 13 \bmod 3 = 0\)
