analogues in Zn of the equation ax = b), we will consider simultaneous linear congruences, where the Chinese Remainder Theorem and its generalisations

[PDF] The Chinese Remainder Theorem

consider how to solve systems of simultaneous linear congruences Example We solve Now substitute for x in the second congruence: 3(6+7t) ≡ 4 (mod 8) This simplifies to calculation gives y1 = 2, y2 = 3, y3 = 4, and y4 = 8 Hence x = 1

Example: The system x ≡ 8 (mod12) x ≡ 6 (mod13) is solvable, since the first congruence is equivalent to the condition that x = 12k + 8 for some integer k,
