I have the calculation: $2^31pmod 2925$



It's for university and we should solve it like:



  1. make prime partition

  2. $2^31$ mod all prime partitions

  3. Solve with Chinese Remainder Theorem.

I started with $2925 = 3 cdot 3 cdot 5 cdot 5 cdot 13$ , and found out that:
$$2^31 equiv 2 pmod3$$
$$2^31 equiv 3 pmod5$$
$$2^31 equiv 11 pmod13$$
I made:
$$x equiv 2 pmod3$$
$$x equiv 3 pmod5$$
$$x equiv 11 pmod13$$



Then I tried CRT and got $x = -1237 + 195k$



If you simply calculate $2^31pmod 2925$ you get $1298$, which is in fact $-1237 + 195 cdot 13$.



I don't know how to find out the $13$.



Any help appreciated.



EDIT:



SOLVED!
I took $3$ instead of $9$ and $5$ instead of $25$ after prime partition. For more infos please see comments. Thanks!

  • For CRT you need to use moduli $,9,25,13,,$ not $,3,5,13,$

  • Ah, so I need to multiply the same primes.. like if I had 3*3*3 instead of 3*3 I had to take 27?

  • You want the lcm of the moduli to be $2925$ in order to get the result mod $2925$, and you want them pairwise coprime so you can apply CRT.

You want the l.c.m. of the moduli to be $2925$ in order to get the result modulo $2925$, and you want them pairwise coprime so you can apply CRT.
