For the Euclidean Algorithm, Extended Euclidean Algorithm and multiplicative inverse.

Before you use this calculator

If you're used to a different notation, the output of the calculator might confuse you at first.
Even though this is basically the same as the notation you expect. If that happens, don't panic.
Just make sure to have a look the following pages first and then it will all make sense:


Input

Algorithm

Choose which algorithm you would like to use.

Numbers

Enter the input numbers. Note that you need to enter n before b.
E.g. if you want to know the multiplicative inverse of 26 mod 11, then use n=11 and b=26.

n=
b=


Output

This is the calculation for finding the multiplicative inverse of 301596 mod 259 using the Extended Euclidean Algorithm:

19631-213-41
616013-41259
Answer

So t = -41. Now we still have to apply mod n to that number:
-41 mod 259 ≡ 218
So the multiplicative inverse of 301596 modulo 259 is 218.

Verification

Let i be the answer we just found, so i=218. We also have b=301596 and n=259.
If our answer is correct, then i × b (mod n) ≡ 1 (mod n).
Let's see if that's indeed the case.
i × b (mod n) ≡
218 × 301596 (mod 259) ≡
65747928 (mod 259) ≡
1 (mod 259)
