Arithmetic Operators in C

Arithmetic Operator

They are five arithmetic operators in C.

• + Addition or unary plus
• - Subtraction or unary minus
• * Multiplication
• / Division
• % Modulo operator

These operators can operate on any arithmetic operations in C.

// Header Files
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

//Main Function
int main ()
{
  // Variable Declaration
  int a = 100;
  int b = 2;
  int c = 25;
  int d = 4;
  int result;
 
  result = a - b; // subtraction  ( Subtraction or unary minus Arithmetic Operator)
  printf ("a - b = %i\n", result);
 
  result = b * c; // multiplication ( Multiplication Arithmetic Operator)
  printf ("b * c = %i\n", result);
 
  result = a / c; // division ( Division Arithmetic Operator)
  printf ("a / c = %i\n", result); 
 
  result = a + b * c; // precedence ( Addition or unary plus Arithmetic Operator)
  printf ("a + b * c = %i\n", result);
 
  printf ("a * b + c * d = %i\n", a * b + c * d); // Mixed
  return 0;
}

Sample Output

a - b = 98
b * c = 50
a / c = 4
a + b * c = 150
a * b + c * d = 300
