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 24139 mod 377 using the Extended Euclidean Algorithm:

241393776411101

113321-34103
3211-34103-137
2120103-137377
Answer

So t = -137. Now we still have to apply mod n to that number:
-137 mod 377 ≡ 240
So the multiplicative inverse of 24139 modulo 377 is 240.

Verification

Let i be the answer we just found, so i=240. We also have b=24139 and n=377.
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) ≡
240 × 24139 (mod 377) ≡
5793360 (mod 377) ≡
1 (mod 377)
