Just to be clear:
fmod(9.75,1.625) => 0
Expected, and works correctly for me.

php -n -r "echo fmod(6.5, 1.3);"
=> 1.3
which is not correct (0 is correct)

Note that on windows systems, double quotes are needed (because of the
space) instead of the single quotes.

Try this with CLI:

php -n -r 'echo fmod(9.75,1.625);'

Works fine for me on Linux.

Description:
------------
if $div evenly divides $num, fmod($num, $div) still returns a value not
equal to 0 for almost all decimal $div, where the decimal portion is not
n/2^k for some n and k.

e.g.
fmod(9.75,1.625) => 0 because .125 is 5/2^3


Expected result:
----------------
I expect to see fmod return 0 when the 1st argument is a multiple of
the 2nd.

Actual result:
--------------
fmod(6.5, 1.3) => 1.3
which is incorrect
