Work Step by Step
When using the division technique as a hash function, you calculate the hash value of a key (in this case, the key 124) by dividing it by the number of buckets (23) and taking the remainder. This remainder gives you the index of the bucket where the record with that key should be stored.
So, to find the bucket index for the key 124, you would perform the calculation \(124 \mod 23\), which results in 9. Therefore, you would search in the bucket with index 9 to find the record with the key 124.
