In hardvare and languages I know of there are no multiplication,
division and subtraction operations acting on a left extended precision
argument and a right integer argument. Since the left extended precision
argument in the general case can not be converted to integer, the
integer would have to be converted to extended precision. /Erling

Does the left extended precision argument get converted to an integer
before the Residue operation or is there a special case of the Residue
operation for an extended precision left argument and an integer right
argument? /Erling

No: integers do not automatically get converted to extended precision.
Integers simply have sufficient precision for this example.
