###### tags: `MATA02-2022` # Ungraded problems 8 You are to work on these questions only for the benefit of learning the material. These problems are meant for practice, not an assignment to be handed in. ## 1. Find the following quotients: 1. $3/5$ mod 11 2. $4/3$ mod 13 3. $3/4$ mod 13 4. $4/3$ mod 17 5. $3/4$ mod 17 ## 2. Consider the expression $\frac{2\times 3}{5}$ mod 17. Evaluate this four ways: 1. Find $\frac{1}{5}$ mod 17, that is, find $x$ so that $5x \equiv 1$ mod 17, and then multiply $x$ by 2 and by 3. 2. Find $\frac{2}{5}$ mod 17, that is, find $x$ so that $5x \equiv 2$ mod 17, and multiply $x$ by 3. 3. Find $\frac{3}{5}$ mod 17, that is, find $x$ so that $5x \equiv 3$ mod 17, and multiply $x$ by 2. 4. Find $\frac{6}{5}$ mod 17, that is, find $x$ so that $5x \equiv 6$ mod 17. # Selected (partial) solutions <details> <summary>Solutions to selected problems (click to expand)</summary> 1.1: 9 1.2: 10 1.3: 4 1.4: 7 1.5: 5 2: 8 </details>
