Linear Combination
44
Bezout’s theorem If a and b are integers, then there are integers m and n such that ma+nb=(a,b).
45
Corollary a and b are relatively prime if and only if there is integers a and b, ma+nb=1.
46
Interesting result a and b are relatively prime if and only if there is integers a and b, ma+nb=1. (na, nb)=n (a,b)
