/**
* do_div - returns 2 values: calculate remainder and update new dividend
- * @n: pointer to uint64_t dividend (will be updated)
+ * @n: uint64_t dividend (will be updated)
* @base: uint32_t divisor
*
* Summary:
- * ``uint32_t remainder = *n % base;``
- * ``*n = *n / base;``
+ * ``uint32_t remainder = n % base;``
+ * ``n = n / base;``
*
* Return: (uint32_t)remainder
