remainder, n.
  1. (deviation from regression) aðhvarfsfrávik, leif
    = deviation from regression, residual
  2. (in division) afgangur, minnsta leif
    = least non-negative residue, principal remainder
  3. (in subtraction) munur, mismunur, afgangur (í frádrætti)
    = difference 1 [Orðið afgangur er einkum notað í samhengi sem þessu: If we subtract $5$ from $7$, the remainder is $2$: Þegar $5$ eru dregnir frá $7$ er afgangurinn (mismunurinn) $2$]
  4. = remainder term
