Aryn · Answer 1

(A) True

(B) False

(C) True

(D) True

Step-by-step explanation:

The operators used to do mathematical calculation in C are:

Addition: " + "

Subtraction: " - "

Multiplication: " * "

Division: " / "

Remainder: " % "

In C language, when an integer is divided by an integer the result is also an integer.

For instance, on dividing 8 by 3 on a simple calculator the result is 2.66667.

But when this is performed in C the result of dividing 8 by 3 is 2.

This implies that an integer division yields an integer result.

(A)

The algebraic multiplication of a and b is simply written as ab.

Thus, this statement is TRUE.

(B)

The multiplication of a and b in C language is written as a * b.

Thus, this statement is FALSE.

(C)

The remainder operator used in C language is %.

Thus, this statement is TRUE.

(D)

On dividing an integer by an integer in C language result in an integer.

Thus, this statement is TRUE.
