Divisibility
Definition
Given integers a and b, with a 0, a divides b
(denoted a|b) if integer k, s.t. b = ak.
a is called a divisor of b, and b a multiple of a.
Proposition:
(1) If a 0, then a|0 and a|a. Also, 1|b for
every b
(2) If a|b and b|c, then a | c.
(3) If a|b and a|c, then a | (sb + tc) for all integers
s and t.

Divisibility (cont.)
Theorem (Division algorithm)
Given integers a, b such that a>0, a<b then there exist
two unique integers q and r, 0 r < a s.t. b = aq + r.
Proof:
Uniqueness of q and r:
assume q’ and r’ s.t b = aq’ + r’, 0 r’< a, q’ integer
then aq + r=aq’ + r’ a(q-q’)=r’-r q-q’ = (r’-r)/a
as 0 r,r’ <a -a < (r’-r) < a -1 < (r’-r)/a < 1
So -1 < q-q’ < 1, but q-q’ is integer, therefore
q = q’ and r = r’

Prime and Composite Numbers
Definition
An integer n > 1 is called a prime number if its
positive divisors are 1 and n.
Definition
Any integer number n > 1 that is not prime, is called
a composite number.

Composite numbers: 4, 6, 25, 900, 17778, …

Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)
Definition
Given integers a > 0 and b > 0, we define gcd(a, b) = c,
the greatest common divisor (GCD), as the greatest
number that divides both a and b.
Example
gcd(256, 100)=4
Definition
Two integers a > 0 and b > 0 are relatively prime if
gcd(a, b) = 1.
Example
25 and 128 are relatively prime.

GCD as a Linear Combination
Theorem
Given integers a, b > 0 and a > b, then d = gcd(a,b) is the
least positive integer that can be represented as ax + by,
x, y integer numbers.
Proof: Let t be the smallest positive integer s.t. t = ax + by.
We have d | a and d | b d | ax + by, so d | t, so d t.
We now show t ≤ d.
First t | a; otherwise, a = tu + r, 0 < r < t;
r = a - ut = a - u(ax+by) = a(1-ux) + b(-uy), so we found
another linear combination and r < t. Contradiction.
Similarly t | b, so t is a common divisor of a and b, thus
t ≤ gcd (a, b) = d. So t = d.
Example
gcd(100, 36) = 4 = 4 100 – 11 36 = 400 - 396

GCD and Multiplication
Theorem
Given integers a, b, m >1. If
gcd(a, m) = gcd(b, m) = 1, then gcd(ab, m) = 1
Proof idea:
ax + ym = 1 = bz + tm
Find u and v such that (ab)u + mv = 1

GCD and Division
Theorem
Given integers a>0, b, q, r, such that b = aq + r,
then gcd(b, a) = gcd(a, r).
Proof:
Let gcd(b, a) = d and gcd(a, r) = e, this means
d | b and d | a, so d | b - aq , so d | r
Since gcd(a, r) = e, we obtain d ≤ e.
e | a and e | r, so e | aq + r , so e | b,
Since gcd(b, a) = d, we obtain e ≤ d.
Therefore d = e

that a b (mod n),
if a – b is a multiple of n.
Properties: a b (mod n)
if and only if n | (a – b)
if and only if n | (b – a)
if and only if a = b+k·n for some integer k
if and only if b = a+k·n for some integer k

2. a a (mod n)
3. a b (mod n) if and only if b a (mod n)
4. if a b and b c (mod n), then a c (mod n)

relation.

And

Linear Equation Modulo n
If gcd(a, n) = 1, the equation
has a unique solution, 0< x < n. This solution
is often represented as a-1 mod n
Proof: if ax1 1 (mod n) and ax2 1 (mod n),
then a(x1-x2) 0 (mod n), then n | a(x1-x2),
then n | (x1-x2), then x1-x2=0

• Let us try to solve 3·x+4 3 (mod 7).
• Subtracts 4 from both side, 3·x -1 (mod 7).
• We know that -1 6 (mod 7).
• Thus 3·x 6 (mod 7).
• Multiply both side by 5, 3·5·x 5·6 (mod 7).
• Thus, x 1·x 3·5·x 5·6 30 2 (mod 7).
• Thus, any x that satisfies 3·x+4 3 (mod 7) must satisfy x
