Enter a mod b statement

x ≡ (mod )
  

Solve the modulus equation

5x ≡ 8(mod 3)

Step 1: Calculate d = (5,3)

GCF (5,3) = 1

Step 2: We check to see if 1 | 8

8  =  8
  1

There will be 1 solutions mod 3

Build Diophantine equation from GCF

5x - 3y = 8

Final Answer

Extended Euclidean Algorithm
for 5 and 3
x = 2 and y = -1
