How the value of -11%7 is calculated?

#1

how the vlue of -11 % 7 = -4.Instead it shoud be 3

#2

Actual value of -11 % 7 is 4.
When you do a % b , it means how much to reduce a so that it becomes divisible by b. Like when you do 11% 7 it comes to be 4 bcz if you reduce 4 from 11,it becomes divisible by 7.
So if u reduce 3 from -11, it becomes -14 thus divisible by 7

#3

In first line you have written -11%7 =4 it should be -4?
I did not get the actual value concept.
I know that it shoud be 3 as 7*(-2)+3=-11 but the ans is -4 why?
is it like it neglects minus sign and calculates 11%7 which is equal to 4 and then adds a negative sign before.

#4

Maybe u r not placing brackets so its calculating 11%7 and then placing negative sign.
If u write ((-11)%7),ans will be 3
