JAVA HOW TO PROGRAM, NINTH EDITION, DEITEL: CHAPTER SIX SOLUTIONS

Question: Multiples 

Write a method isMultiple that determines, for a pair of integers, whether the second integer is a multiple of the first. The method should take two integer arguments and return true if the second is a multiple of the first and false otherwise. [Hint: Use the remainder operator.] Incorporate this method into an application that inputs a series of pairs of integers (one pair at a time) and determines whether the second value in each pair is a multiple of the first.

//MultiplesFinder.java
//This program accepts two numbers and finds whether the second number is a multiple of the first.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class MultiplesFinder
{
  public static void main ( String [] args)
  {
    //create Scanner for input
    Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
     
      //prompt for and input two integer numbers
   
    System.out.print("Enter two integer values separated by spaces: ");
      int num1= input.nextInt();
      int num2= input.nextInt();
     
      //determine whether the second number is a multiple of the first
     
      Boolean result = isMultiple(num1,num2);     
    
        System.out.printf("%S ", result);
  }// end of main
 
 
  public static Boolean isMultiple(int num1,int num2)
  {
    Boolean result;
    int quotient = num2%num1;
    if (quotient == 0)
      result = true;
      else
      result = false;
      return result;
  }// end method isMultiple

}//end class
