Answer: Python Puzzler #1511

The answer is A. The program prints:

6 2

Checked by running the program for real.

// divides and throws away the remainder: each friend gets 6 sweets. % gives the remainder: 2 sweets left over.

A trace table follows the program step by step. Here’s this one:

sum	answer
32 // 5	6
32 % 5	2

sweets = 32
friends = 5
print(sweets // friends, sweets % friends)

Try it: change one number in the program and predict the new output before you run it.
