Calculate $100^{1207} mod 63$












2












$begingroup$


I try to solve this question: Calculate $100^{1207} mod 63$. There is the hint that i should calculate $100^{1207} mod 7$, $100^{1207} mod 9$, which is easy for me, but I don't see the relationship between this to questions. I guess it must have something to do with the fact, that $7*9 = 63$.

    Well, its the Chinese remainder theorem:
    $$xequiv a mod 7quad text{and}quad xequiv b mod 9,quad a,bin{Bbb Z}.$$
    The solution is unique in the range of $0leq xleq 63-1$.

      First note that $100$ and $63$ are coprime, and that $phi(63)=phi(3^2)phi(7)=6^2$.
      So
      $$100^{1207}=4^{1207},25^{1207}equiv 4^{1207bmod 36},25^{1207bmod36}=4^{19},25^{19}mod 63.$$



      On the other hand, $4$ has order 3$bmod 63$, so
      $$4^{19},25^{19}equiv 4cdot5^{38}equiv4cdot5^{38bmod 36}=4cdot5^2mod 63.$$

        The Chinese remainder theorem tells us that if we know a number $x$ modulo $7$ and
        modulo $9$ we also know $x$ modulo $7times 9 = 63$ because $7$ and $9$ are coprime. It even gives a formula to compute this $x$ modulo $63$, given these other two.

          It certainly has to do with the fact that $7*9=64$ and also with the fact that the greatest common divisor of 7 and 9 is 1 (they are coprime). As explained by others, the Chinese Remainder Theorem can help solving this problem. It states the following:



          Chinese Remainder Theorem




          Let $m_1, ..., m_n$ be pairwise coprime ($gcd(m_i, m_j) = 1$ when $i
          > neq j$
          ). Then the system of $n$ equations



          $$x equiv a_1 mod{m_1}\ ... \ x equiv a_n mod{m_n}$$



          has a unique solution for $x$ modulo $M$ where $M = m_1dotsm m_n$.




          So for this particular problem you can find $a_1$ and $a_2$ for $m_1 = 7$ and $m_2 = 9$ and then look for an $0 < x < 63$ that satisfies the equations for $m_1$ and $m_2$. Here are several methods you can use for this (Search by sieving might be the best for this case).



          A completely different solution might use the fact that $100^3 equiv 1mod{63}$.

            Using http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CarmichaelFunction.html, $$lambda(63)=6$$



            and $(100,63)=1$ and $1207equiv1pmod6$



            $implies100^{1207}equiv100^1pmod{63}equiv?$



            More generally,
            $a^nequiv a^{npmod6}pmod{63}$ for $(a,63)=1$

                                        The Chinese remainder theorem tells us that if we know a number $x$ modulo $7$ and
                                        modulo $9$ we also know $x$ modulo $7times 9 = 63$ because $7$ and $9$ are coprime. It even gives a formula to compute this $x$ modulo $63$, given these other two.

                                              It certainly has to do with the fact that $7*9=64$ and also with the fact that the greatest common divisor of 7 and 9 is 1 (they are coprime). As explained by others, the Chinese Remainder Theorem can help solving this problem. It states the following:



                                              Chinese Remainder Theorem




                                              Let $m_1, ..., m_n$ be pairwise coprime ($gcd(m_i, m_j) = 1$ when $i
                                              > neq j$
                                              ). Then the system of $n$ equations



                                              $$x equiv a_1 mod{m_1}\ ... \ x equiv a_n mod{m_n}$$



                                              has a unique solution for $x$ modulo $M$ where $M = m_1dotsm m_n$.




                                              So for this particular problem you can find $a_1$ and $a_2$ for $m_1 = 7$ and $m_2 = 9$ and then look for an $0 < x < 63$ that satisfies the equations for $m_1$ and $m_2$. Here are several methods you can use for this (Search by sieving might be the best for this case).



                                              A completely different solution might use the fact that $100^3 equiv 1mod{63}$.
