a congruent to b (mod n)

PDF	3 Congruence We read this as “a is congruent to b modulo (or mod) n For example 29 ≡ 8 mod 7 and 60 ≡ 0 mod 15 The notation is used because the properties of

PDF	Basic Properties of Congruences The notation a ≡ b (mod m) means that m divides a − b We then say that a is congruent to b modulo m 1 (Reflexive Property): a ≡ a (mod m)

The modulo operation of integers a and b. “a mod b” returns the remainder after dividing a by b.

What is the statement a ≡ b mod n called?

As with so many concepts we will see, congruence is simple, perhaps familiar to you, yet enormously useful and powerful in the study of number theory.
If n is a positive integer, we say the integers a and b are congruent modulo n, and write a≡b(modn), if they have the same remainder on division by n.

What is congruent to mod?

We say integers a and b are "congruent modulo n" if their difference is a multiple of n.
For example, 17 and 5 are congruent modulo 3 because 17 - 5 = 12 = 4⋅3, and 184 and 51 are congruent modulo 19 since 184 - 51 = 133 = 7⋅19.
We often write this as 17 ≡ 5 mod 3 or 184 ≡ 51 mod 19.

For a positive integer n, two integers a and b are said to be congruent modulo n (or a is congruent to b modulo n), if a and b have the same remainder when divided by n (or equivalently if a − b is divisible by n ). It can be expressed as a ≡ b mod n. n is called the modulus.
