 #### Divide, `/` {#binary-divide}
 
-The binary slash (_division_) operator `/{:tact}` is used for integer division of two values, which truncates toward zero if the result is positive and away from zero if the result is negative. This is also called [rounding down](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding#Rounding_down) or rounding toward $-∞$.
+The binary slash (_division_) operator `/{:tact}` is used for integer division of two values. It rounds the result towards negative infinity, which is also known as floor division or [rounding down](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding#Rounding_down).
+
+The following equation holds: `x = q*y + r`, where `q` is the quotient that is always equal to `floor(x / y)` from the TVM specification, and `r` is the remainder that will have the same sign as the divisor `y` when `r` is not zero.
 
 An attempt to divide by zero results in an error with [exit code 4](/book/exit-codes#4): `Integer overflow`.
