-- Take the number to be divided.
-- Find all of its factors.
-- If you divide it by one of its factors, then there will be no remainder.
-- If you divide it by any other number, then there will be a remainder.

You can determine if a division has a remainder by checking divisibility through factors, using the modulo operation, or estimating with simple trials. If the divisor is a factor of the dividend, there’s no remainder. Alternatively, if the modulo operation results in a non-zero value, it indicates a remainder exists.
