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 727 mod 587 using the Extended Euclidean Algorithm:
nbqr t1t2t3

7275871140101

27552-421-109
522121-109239
2120-109239-587
Answer

So t = 239. Now we still have to apply mod n to that number:
239 mod 587 ≡ 239
So the multiplicative inverse of 727 modulo 587 is 239.

Verification

Let i be the answer we just found, so i=239. We also have b=727 and n=587.
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) ≡
239 × 727 (mod 587) ≡
173753 (mod 587) ≡
1 (mod 587)
