Definition used:
Congruence.
Let m be an integer greater than 1. If x and y are integers, then x is congruent to y modulo m if x - y is divisible by m. It can be represented as x=y±odm. This relation is called as congruence modulo m.
Calculation:
It is known that, [x] + [y] = [x+y].
Then, the value of the expression becomes as follows.
[16] + [9] = [16 + 9] = [25]
Since 251±od6. Thus [16] + [9] = [1] in Z6.
Therefore, the value of the expression is [1].
