Enter Modular Exponentiation

Solve 320 mod 23 using:

Modular exponentiation

Build an algorithm:

n is our exponent = 20

y = 1 and u ≡ 3 mod 23 = 3

See here

n = 20 is even

Since 20 is even, we keep y = 1

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 32 mod 23

u2 mod p = 9 mod 23

9 mod 23 = 9
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

20 ÷ 2 = 10

n = 10 is even

Since 10 is even, we keep y = 1

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 92 mod 23

u2 mod p = 81 mod 23

81 mod 23 = 12
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

10 ÷ 2 = 5

n = 5 is odd

Since 5 is odd, calculate (y)(u) mod p

(y)(u) mod p = (1)(12) mod 23

(y)(u) mod p = 12 mod 23

12 mod 23 = 12
Reset y to this value

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 122 mod 23

u2 mod p = 144 mod 23

144 mod 23 = 6
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

5 ÷ 2 = 2

n = 2 is even

Since 2 is even, we keep y = 12

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 62 mod 23

u2 mod p = 36 mod 23

36 mod 23 = 13
Reset u to this value

Cut n in half and take the integer

2 ÷ 2 = 1

n = 1 is odd

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

(y)(u) mod p = (12)(13) mod 23

(y)(u) mod p = 156 mod 23

156 mod 23 = 18
Reset y to this value

Determine u2 mod p

u2 mod p = 132 mod 23

u2 mod p = 169 mod 23

169 mod 23 = 8
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
