First of all, I have no idea what an ICT might be. Second, your question is pretty cryptic. I think you mean that you want to express the product of 5 and 11 divided by 6 as a quotient and a remainder. I'm also assuming you really didn't mean to say 'reminder' rather you meant 'remainder'

Some computer languages use the backslash "\" as indicative of integer division, meaning that p\q is the integer portion of the quotient p/q, and the remainder is given by the modulo function, mod(p,q) is the remainder of the integer division of p by q.

So you could say: (5*11)\6 = 9; mod(5*11,6)=1

You could also say: %285%2A11%29%2F6=9%2B1%2F6
