The Arithmetic Operators in JAVA

Arithmetic operators are used in mathematical expressions in the same way that they are used in algebra. The following table lists the arithmetic operators:
Assume integer variable A holds 10 and variable B holds 20 then:
Show Examples
OperatorDescriptionExample
+Addition - Adds values on either side of the operator A + B will give 30
-Subtraction - Subtracts right hand operand from left hand operand A - B will give -10
*Multiplication - Multiplies values on either side of the operator A * B will give 200
/Division - Divides left hand operand by right hand operand B / A will give 2
%Modulus - Divides left hand operand by right hand operand and returns remainder B % A will give 0
++Increment - Increase the value of operand by 1 B++ gives 21
--Decrement - Decrease the value of operand by 1 B-- gives 19
