You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(2 + 4 - 23 \:\%\: 2 + 12\)

MathBot Answer:

\[2 + 4 - 23 \:\%\: 2 + 12 = 17\]


\[\begin{aligned}2 + 4 - 23 \:\%\: 2 + 12& = 2 + 4 - \left(23 \:\%\: 2\right) + 12\\& = 2 + 4 - 1 + 12\\& = 6 - 1 + 12\\& = 5 + 12\\& = 17\end{aligned}\]


The notation \(m \% n\) denotes the remainder of the integer \(m\) divided by the integer \(n\). \(m \% n = r\) means that given integers \(m\) and \(n\), where \(n\) is non-zero, there exist integers \(q\) and \(r\), where \(\lvert r \rvert < \lvert n \rvert\), such that \(m = q n + r\). MathBot adopts the convention that the remainder \(r\) and the divisor \(n\) share the same sign. Alternate notations for \(m \% n\) are \(\operatorname{mod}(m, n)\) and \(m \bmod n\).
