Homework Statement
Write a routine that accepts two integers i and j as arguments, calculates the quotient and remainder of i and j, and generates a string in memory that stores "The quotient of i and j is i/j and the remainder is i%j". For example if the arguments was 15 and 7 the string in memory would be "The quotient of 15 and 7 is 2 and the remainder is 1". The address of the string is returned as the 3rd argument of your routine. Write a main program that calls your routine, test run it using MARS and show the output.

syscallWhat I'm having a problem with is the output. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do "For example if the arguments was 15 and 7 the string in memory would be 'The quotient of 15 and 7 is 2 and the remainder is 1' "
Also am I storing the numbers as strings not integers?
