Enter Modular Exponentiation


      

Solve 35 mod 11 using:

Modular exponentiation

Build an algorithm:

n is our exponent = 5

y = 1 and u ≡ 3 mod 11 = 3

See here

n = 5 is odd

Since 5 is odd, calculate (y)(u) mod p

(y)(u) mod p = (1)(3) mod 11

(y)(u) mod p = 3 mod 11

3 mod 11 = 3
Reset y to this value

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 32 mod 11

u2 mod p = 9 mod 11

9 mod 11 = 9
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

5 ÷ 2 = 2

n = 2 is even

Since 2 is even, we keep y = 3

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 92 mod 11

u2 mod p = 81 mod 11

81 mod 11 = 4
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

2 ÷ 2 = 1

n = 1 is odd

Since 1 is odd, calculate (y)(u) mod p

(y)(u) mod p = (3)(4) mod 11

(y)(u) mod p = 12 mod 11

12 mod 11 = 1
Reset y to this value

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 42 mod 11

u2 mod p = 16 mod 11

16 mod 11 = 5
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

1 ÷ 2 = 0

Because n = 0, we stop

We have our answer

Final Answer


35 mod 11 ≡ 1
