Need help with this Intro to Elementary Number Theory homework problem.

 

covered topics

  • prime numbers
  • linear Diophantine equations
  • systems of linear Diophantine equations.

 

Let a = 1259 and b be an integer that is relatively prime to a. Every solution of the linear Diophantine equation
ax + by 996b
is of the form
x = xo + ck,
y = yo + dk,
KEZ
where c, d are certain integers and x= xo, y = yo is a particular integer solution. Assuming that d is a positive integer, what is the value of d? Enter O if there is not enough
information to determine the value of d or if the Diophantine equation does not have any solutions.
