With this example we are going to demonstrate how to use the arithmetic operators in Java. The arithmetic operators supported by the Java programming language are theAdditive operator (also used for String concatenation), theSubtraction operator, theMultiplication operator, theDivision operator, and theRemainder operator. In short, to use the arithmetic operators you should:

• Use theAdditive operator to add variables.
• Use theSubtraction operator to subtract variables.
• Use theMultiplication operator to multiply variables.
• Use theDivision operator to divide variables.

Let’s take a look at the code snippet that follows:  

package com.javacodegeeks.snippets.basics;public class ArithmeticOperatorsExample {public static void main(String[] args) { int i = 30 + 20;int j = i - 5;int k = j * 2;double l = k / 6; System.out.println("i = " + i);System.out.println("j = " + j);System.out.println("k = " + k);System.out.println("l = " + l);}}

Output:

i = 50j = 45k = 90l = 15.0

  
This was an example of how to use the arithmetic operators in Java.
