Assumptions1. We have56 books. . We are dividing these books into groups of5.

STEP 2

To find the remainder when a number is divided by another, we use the modulus operation. The modulus operation finds the remainder after division of one number by another.
$Remainder = Number\, of\, books\, mod\, Group\, size$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the number of books and group size to calculate the remainder.
$Remainder =56\, mod\,5$

STEP 4

Calculate the remainder.
$Remainder =56\, mod\, =1$ So, when56 books are divided into groups of, there will be1 book left over.
