Problem 1E

Show that 15 is an inverse of 7 modulo 26.

Step-by-Step Solution:

In this question we have to show that 15 is an inverse of 7 modulo 26.

Step 1 </p>

Let a and b be the two integers such that

Such that a and b are inverses of each other

That is, $ab=1(mod\ m)$

Here ,

$a=15,\ b=7\ and\ m\ =26\$

$ab=15\times{}7$

$ab$
