In this movie, I will show you how to find the integer component of a division operation or any other operation, as well as the whole number remainder from division. In this scenario, let's suppose that I have an olive oil company and I have 12 bottles per case. What I'd like to discover is how many cases I can create based on a specific number of bottles. So I'm not worried about how many bottles I have left over, I just want to know how many full cases I can create. To create those formulas, I can use the int function, which is short for integer. The I-N-T function rounds a number down to the nearest integer, so basically it strips off the decimal point. To demonstrate, I'll click in cell C2 and type an equal sign, and then I-N-T which is the integer function, left parentheses, and the value will be the calculation of A2, which is my number of bottles, divided by the…
