Parameters of comparison of the first sort (through a gap)

The set equality
Will be true if x =

In number theory, which deals with the study of integer values, there is another problem that we will try to solve.

 

if we know A, B, C then for what value of x this equality will be true?

As an example

(A * x) mod (B) = C

The solution of such problems is inextricably linked with the Euler function  . Although of course there is an alternative method of solution (according to Euclid), but we will not consider it.

How to solve such equations. Recall that, according to the Fermat-Euler formula, there is the following dependence. If a and m are coprime numbers (i.e. not having common divisors), then

a ^ {\ phi (m)} mod (m) = 1

Given that the Euler function of a prime m is m-1, we get the famous formula for any prime

a ^ {\ phi (m)} mod (m) = 1

where, as already mentioned, a must be coprime with m.

Euler’s method for solving similar comparisons in formulas looks like this

a ^ {\ phi (m)} mod (m) = 1 => a * a ^ {\ phi (m) -1} mod (m) = 1

a (a ^ {\ phi (m) -1} b) mod (m) = b

Then, solving the equation (a * x) mod (m) = b

find out what is x

x = ba ^ {\ phi (m) -1}

Let's try to solve our first example.

(A * x) mod (B) = C

x = 4758 ^ {\ phi (m) -1}

the Euler function for 47 is 46

and the final formula is equal x = 4758 ^ {56-1}

If you count "looser" you get a huge number, but we need to find out only xmod (m) => xmod (87)

To solve such a problem, we will use the material The number rest in degree on the module and find out that our solution

equally x = 47 * 58mod (87) = 29

check by substituting the resulting value

(A * x) mod (B) = C

completely divided, which means our decision is right.

As you can see, we can also solve a similar problem along the way, which is called the inverse value modulo the residue class and which is expressed by the formula

(A * x) mod (B) = 1

Good luck!
