  : Im not clear on division and the remainder %.
  :
  : Am i suppose to use both the / sign ( to get the main division between two numbers) and then the % sign ( to get the remainder from the answer from the division)in a single division problem to get the remainder?
  :
  : or else
  :
  : am i suppose to replace the / sign with the %
  :
  : this is a little bit confusing?
  :
  : thank you

  no, they are seperate operators. if u need the remainder, use only % and when u need division, simply use /.[code]
  int x = 46, y = 13;
  cout << "x%y = " << x%y << endl;
  cout << "x/y = " << x/y << endl;
  [/code]
  see what happens when u run the above code. :-)
