In short form then:
Put 23 into tX; Put 8 into tY;
Put tX & “/“ & tY && “=“ && (tX div tY) && (tX mod tY) & “/“ & tY into

Perhaps not, but it is what you asked for...
28 div 3 = 9
28 mod 1 = 1
28 / 3 = 9 + 1/3
301 div 10 = 30
301 mod 10
A (theoretical) circle is effectively a regular polygon with "many" vertices.
LC Script draws only integer valued points (although you can give decimals).
That approximation of a circle by regular polygons is shown in the sample stack

like this:

Well . . . Um . . . div
But that is alright as far as sums such as 28 div 3 go . . .
But it is not much cop when it comes to finding

Thanks Phil and Devin. I had no idea that div and the "/" operator yielded
different results.

Are you talking about the div operator?
put 12 div 5 --> 2
And the mod operator
put 12 div 5 into tQuotient
put 12 mod 5 into tRemainder
put 12 / 5 into tDecimalQuotient

Does LC include an operator to return the quotient of a division
operation? For example, I want to get 2 as the result of 12 divided by 5.
