Use the Chinese remainder theorem to solve the system of linear congruences x 3 mod 5 x 6 mod 7 x 4 mod 11.
Solution
Since GCF(5,7)=GCF(5,11)=GCF(7,11) = 1
N = n1.n2.n3 = 5*11*7 = 385
Also Ci = N/ni
=> C1 = 385/5 = 77, Similarly C2 = 55 and C3 = 35
=> 5X1+77Y1 = 1 ( Y1 = -2), 7X2+55Y2 = 1 (Y2 = -1) and 11X3+35Y3 = 1 (Y3 = -5)
Since We have
X = a1(77Y1)+a2(55Y2)+a3(35Y3) = -462-330-700 = -1492
