Chinese Remainder Theorem - solving a modulo with big numbers












1












$begingroup$


I have the calculation: $2^{31}pmod {2925}$



It's for university and we should solve it like:




  1. make prime partition

  2. $2^{31}$ mod all prime partitions

  3. Solve with Chinese Remainder Theorem.


I started with $2925 = 3 cdot 3 cdot 5 cdot 5 cdot 13$ , and found out that:
$$2^{31} equiv 2 pmod{3}$$
$$2^{31} equiv 3 pmod{5}$$
$$2^{31} equiv 11 pmod{13}$$
I made:
$$x equiv 2 pmod3$$
$$x equiv 3 pmod5$$
$$x equiv 11 pmod{13}$$



Then I tried CRT and got $x = -1237 + 195k$



If you simply calculate $2^{31}pmod{ 2925}$ you get $1298$, which is in fact $-1237 + 195 cdot 13$.



I don't know how to find out the $13$.



Any help appreciated.



EDIT:



SOLVED!
I took $3$ instead of $9$ and $5$ instead of $25$ after prime partition. For more infos please see comments. Thanks!

    For CRT you need to use moduli $,9,25,13,,$ not $,3,5,13,$

    Ah, so I need to multiply the same primes.. like if I had 3*3*3 instead of 3*3 I had to take 27?

    You want the lcm of the moduli to be $2925$ in order to get the result mod $2925$, and you want them pairwise coprime so you can apply CRT.
