If the remainder must be an integer value, then the largest remainder you can have from any equation when dividing by 12 is a remainder of 11.

Example: (23 / 12 = 1 R11)

12 goes into 23 one time, and there's 11 left over. If there was more than 11, such as (24 / 12), then the answer would be 2 with no remainder.
