Solve the linear congruence: 2x13mod72x \equiv 13 \mod 7 after dividing both sides by 2.

Solve the linear congruence: 5x3mod295x \equiv 3 \mod 29 and provide the solution in a positive form less than 29.

Solve the linear congruence: 3x14mod23x \equiv 14 \mod 2 and find all solutions in the least residue system.

Solve the linear congruence: 2x5mod72x \equiv 5 \mod 7 and find all three solutions using the parametric form.

Solve the linear congruence equation 4x8(mod5)4x \equiv 8 \pmod{5}

If aa divides bb and aa divides cc, then aa divides b+cb + c.

If aa divides bb and bb divides cc, then aa divides cc.

If aa divides cc and bb divides dd, then abab divides cdcd; verify if this is true.

If aa divides bb and bb divides cc, then aa divides cc.

If aa divides bb, then c×ac \times a divides c×bc \times b.

If aa divides bb and aa divides cc, then for all integers xx and yy, aa divides bx+cybx + cy.
