Ruby program to demonstrate the arithmetic operators

Last Updated : December 15, 2025

Problem Solution

In this program, we will perform arithmetic operations using arithmetic operators and print the result.

Program/Source Code

The source code to demonstrate the arithmetic operators is given below. The given program is compiled and executed on UBUNTU 18.04 successfully.

# Ruby program to demonstrate the 
# arithmetic operators

num1 = 5
num2 = 2

num3 = num1 + num2
puts("Addition: ",num3)

num3 = num1 - num2
puts("Subtraction: ",num3)

num3 = num1 * num2
puts("Multiplication: ",num3)

num3 = num1 / num2
puts("Division: ",num3)

num3 = num1 % num2
puts("Remainder: ",num3)

num3 = num1 ** num2
puts("Exponential: ",num3)

Output

Addition: 
7
Subtraction: 
3
Multiplication: 
10
Division: 
2
Remainder: 
1
Exponential: 
25

Explanation

In the above program, we created two variables num1, num2 that are initialized with 5, 2 respectively. Then we performed arithmetic operations and printed the result.
