Is there a modular expression possible for following :
((a*b)/e)%m
For ex :
(a*b*c)%m = ((a%m)*(b%m)*(c%m))%m
Instead of performing division when using modular arithmetic, you must multiply by the modular inverse. For instance, to divide by e, you would multiply by the modular inverse c where c × e ≡ 1 (mod m). You can calculate the modular inverse of x (mod m) by the following algorithm:
function inverse(x, m)
a, b, u = 0, m, 1
while x > 0
q = b // x # integer division
x, a, b, u = b % x, u, x, a - q * u
if b == 1 return a % m
error "must be coprime"
Thus, for your expression ((a*b)/e)%m
you would compute (a * b * inverse(e,m)) % m
