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 28673 mod 579 using the Extended Euclidean Algorithm:

27725112-12-23
2521212-23278
2120-23278-579
Answer

So t = 278. Now we still have to apply mod n to that number:
278 mod 579 ≡ 278
So the multiplicative inverse of 28673 modulo 579 is 278.

Verification

Let i be the answer we just found, so i=278. We also have b=28673 and n=579.
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) ≡
278 × 28673 (mod 579) ≡
7971094 (mod 579) ≡
1 (mod 579)
