Enter Modular Exponentiation


      

Solve 31 mod 7 using:

Modular exponentiation

Build an algorithm:

n is our exponent = 1

y = 1 and u ≡ 3 mod 7 = 3

See here

n = 1 is odd

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

(y)(u) mod p = (1)(3) mod 7

(y)(u) mod p = 3 mod 7

3 mod 7 = 3
Reset y to this value

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 32 mod 7

u2 mod p = 9 mod 7

9 mod 7 = 2
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


31 mod 7 ≡ 3
