Learning Objectives:

By the end of the lesson learners should be able to:
  1. Defined Modular arithmetic.

    Is defined as the arithmatic of remainder where an integer is divided by a fixed non-zero integer. Moduli is the plural of modulus.
    In general, in modular arithmetic, you do arithmetic with the numbers from 1 to n as normal, and if your answer goes outside that range you add or subtract multiples of n to get back into the range.
    The number n is called the modulus, and the calculations are said to be done modulo n or mod n.
    Instead of the usual equality sign (=), the symbol ≡ is used in modular arithmetic.
    E.g
    b ≡ r(mod k)
    2 ≡ 7(mod 5)
    6 ≡ 13(mod 7)
  2. Defined the congruent and residue of modular.

    Two integers are congruent to each other concerning a module if their difference is a multiple of the modulus.
    Or
    If two integers b and r have the property that b-r is divided by k, then b and r are called congruent modulo k while r is called the residue written as
    b ≡ r(mod k)
    NOTE; 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, --- k-1 is the set of residues mod k.
    i.e, in mod 6, the largest residue is 5
    in mod 10, the largest residue is 9
    in mod y, and the largest residue is y-1
    Examples

    1. 2 ≡ 7(mod 5)
      2-7 = -5
      -5÷5 = -1
      Hence; 2 ≡ 7(mod 5) is a congruence of mod 5

    2. 6 ≡ 13(mod 7)
      6-13 = -7
      -7÷7 = -1
      Hence; 6 ≡ 13(mod 7) is a congruence of mod 7

    3. 25 ≡ 11(mod 7)
      25-11 = 14
      14÷7 = 2
      Hence; 25 ≡ 11(mod 7) is a congruence of mod 7

    4. 13 ≡ 1(mod 12)
      13-1 = 12
      12÷12 = 1
      Hence; 13 ≡ 1(mod 12) is a congruence of mod 12

    5. 15 ≡ 0(mod 15)
      15-0 = 15
      15÷15 = 1
      Hence; 15 ≡ 0(mod 15) is a congruence of mod 15

    6. 5 ≡ -5(mod 5)
      5-(-5) = 10
      10÷5 = 2
      Hence; 5 ≡ -5(mod 1) is a congruence of mod 5

    7. -3 ≡ 11(mod 4)
      -3-11 = -8
      -8÷4 = -2
      Hence; -3 ≡ 11(mod 4) is a congruence of mod 4

    8. -3 ≡ 7(mod 4)
      -3-7 = -10
      -10÷4 = 2.5
      Hence; -3 ≡ 7(mod 4) is NOT a congruence of mod 4

  3. explain and compute a residue that is equivalent to a given residue.

    When two residue leaves the same remainder upon division by the modulus, the such residue is said to be equivalent residue.
    i.e Whenever two residues x and y are found to be equivalent relative to a fixed modulus k, we write; that if

    x ≡ y(mod k) then,
    y ≡ x(mod k)
    where nk ≡ 0
    where n is an integer


    Example
    1. Show that 5 and 2 are equivalent in mod 3.
      Solution
      5 ≡ 1x3+2(mod 3) ----- the residue is = 2
      2 ≡ 0x3+2(mod 3) ----- the residue is =2
      Hence 5 and 2 are equivalent in mod 3.

    2. Find the positive integer of the least absolute value that is equivalent to 33 in mod 7.
      Solution
      33 ≡ 4x7+5(mod 7)
      5 ≡ 0x7+5(mod 7)
      Therefore 33 ≡ 5 (mod 7)
      Hence, the integer is 5

    3. Find the smallest integer than 0 that is equivalent to
      1. 34 in mod 5
      2. 6 in mod 9
      3. 130 in mod 12

      Solution
      1. 34 ≡ 6x5+4(mod 5)
        4 ≡ 0x5+4(mod 5)
        Therefore 34 ≡ 4 (mod 5)

      2. 6 => 6+9 = 15 (you can add multiple modular to an integer if the integer is less than the modular)
        Therefore, 15 ≡ 1x9+6(mod 9)
        6 ≡ 0x9+6(mod 9)
        Therefore 15 ≡ 6(mod 9)

      3. 130 ≡ 10x12+10(mod 12)
        10 ≡ 0x12+10(mod 12)
        Therefore 130 ≡ 10(mod 12)
  4. carry out basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) of residue

        Therefore, 11 ≡ 1x8+3(mod 8)
        11 ≡ 3(mod 8)
        Therefore 5 6 ≡ 3(mod 8)

      2. Simplify 1. 12 7 and 2. 13 9 given that all the residues are in mod 5.
        Solution
        1. 12 7 in mod 5
          12 7 = 19
          19 ≡ 3x5+4(mod 5)
          19 ≡ 4(mod 5)
          Therefore 12 7 ≡ 4(mod 5)

          ALTERNATIVELY
          12 7 in mod 5
          12 in mod 5 is 12 ≡ 2x5x2(mod 5)
          7 in mod 5 is 7 ≡ 1x5+2(mod 5)
          Therefore
          12 ≡ 2(mod 5)
          7 ≡ 2(mod 5)
          Hence, 12 7 in mod 5
          12 7(mod 5) ≡ 2 2(mod 5)
          12 7(mod 5) ≡ 4(mod 5)


        2. 13 9(mod 5)
          Solution
          13 9 = 22
          22 ≡ 4x5+2(mod 5)
          22 ≡ 2(mod 5)
          Therefore, 13 9(mod 5) ≡ 2(mod 5)

    5. DIVISION IN MODULAR

      The modular division is trickier. We start with the idea that division is supposed o be the opposite of multiplication. The concept of multiplication inverse of the denomination is used in modular division.
      m n ≡ m n -1

      Mod 7 Division Table

      4 NA 4 2 6 1 5 3
      5 NA 5 6 4 3 1 2
      6 NA 6 3 2 5 4 1
      The symbol show division in modular arithmetic. This shows that it is different from ordinary arithmetic.
      Division in modular arithmetic may give more than one value or even no value at all.

      If we can find two residues say m and n in mod k such that;
      m n≡ 1 (mod k)
      Then, n ≡ m-1 (RECAL: from indices) if n = m-1
      then n = 1/m
      and n x m = 1

      HENCE, n ≡ m-1
      We refer to n as the multiplicative the inverse of m in mod k. Therefore, if m is the multiplicative the inverse of n then n is also the multiplicative the inverse of m in the same modulus.
      :. n m ≡ n m-1
      In the mod 7 multiplication table above, the multiplication the inverse of the residues is obtained from the table.

      • 1-1 ≡ 1
      • 2-1 ≡ 4 hence 4-1 ≡ 2

Rationale:

Modular arithmetic, also known as clock arithmetic, every time you tell the time, you are dealing with the modulus 12. There exist several events, conditions or quantities that usually vary in a sequence such that, whenever a certain fixed amount is attained, the sequence is repeated. Most of these events or conditions are related to time, such as
  • 1 rotation of the hour hand of the clock or records 12 hrs (half day).
  • 1 rotation of the minute hand of the clock or watch records 60 mins or 1 hr.
  • 1 rotation of the second hand of the clock or watch records 60 secs or 1 minute.
  • 1 rotation of 7 days records 1 week
  • 1 rotation of 24 hours record 1 day
  • Except for the leap year, 1 rotation of 365 days records 1 year
  • 1 rotation of 12 months record 1 year

STEP 1
5 mins.
Development
Ask students to form three groups. Form three groups and share responsibility. Inculcating leadership skills, competitive spirit, cooperation, teamwork and a sense of responsibility among learners.
Teacher to provide learners with materials (Wall clock, calendar) and instructions and allow them to identify the materials


The teacher thereafter asks learners.
  1. 3 hours after 10.00 clock is what?
  2. 17 hours after 9.00 clock is what?
  3. 9 hours before 4.00 clock is what?



The teacher explains the concept of modular to students and thereafter guild the students to define modular.
  1. 3 hours after 10.00 clock is 1.00 clock because 3 + 10 = 13, and 13 = 1 x 12 + 1 (in 12 rotation hand of the clock)
  2. 17 hours after 9.00 clock is 2.00 clock because 17 + 9 = 26, and 26 = 2 x 12 + 2 (in 12 rotation hand of the clock)
  3. 9 hours before 4.00 clock is 7.00 clock because 4 - 9 = -5, and -5 + 12 = 7 (in 12 rotation hand of the clock)
Students take materials needed for this activity and identify the materials as a Wall clock, and calender.




Hence respond to the teacher's questions
  1. 3 hours after 10.00 clock is 1.00 clock
  2. 17 hours after 9.00 clock is 2.00 clock
  3. 9 hours before 4.00 clock is 7.00 clock







The students define modular;
Modular is an arithmetic of remainder where an integer is divided by a fixed non-zero integer.
Developing the concept of modular arithmetic
Step 2

Students counted 19 days from Friday and stopped on the 24th of Wednesday.
Hence; The expected day is Wednesday.
STEP 3
congruent and residue of modular (5 mins)
The teacher explains the congruent and residue of modular, thus;
If two integers b and r have the property that b-r is divided by k, then b and r are called congruent modulo k while r is called the residue written as
b ≡ r(mod k)
NOTE; 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, --- k-1 is the set of residues mod k.
i.e, in mod 6, the largest residue is 5
in mod 10, the largest residue is 9
in mod y, and the largest residue is y-1

Example

13 ≡ 1(mod 12)
13-1 = 12
12÷12 = 1
Hence; 13 ≡ 1(mod 12) is a congruence of mod 12

-3 ≡ 7(mod 4)
-3-7 = -10
-10÷4 = 2.5
Hence; -3 ≡ 7(mod 4) is NOT a congruence of mod 4

The teacher asks students questions.
Which of the following statement is true
  1. 4 ≡ 3 (mod 7)
  2. 5 ≡ -5 (mod 15)
  3. 2 ≡ 4 (mod 4)
  4. 6 ≡ 3 (mod 3)
  5. 32 ≡ 2 (mod 5)
Students pay attention and ask questions.

Learners expected respond
  1. 4 ≡ 3 (mod 7)
    4 - 3 = 1
    1 ÷ 7 = 0.1428
    Hence; 4 ≡ 3 (mod 7) is NOT a congruence of mod 7

  2. 5 ≡ -5 (mod 15)
    5 - (-5) = 10
    10 ÷ 15 = 0.6666
    Hence; 5 ≡ -5 (mod 15) is NOT a congruence of mod 15

  3. 2 ≡ 4 (mod 4)
    2 - 4 = -2
    -2 ÷ 4 = -0.5
    Hence; 2 ≡ 4 (mod 4) is NOT a congruence of mod 4

  4. 6 ≡ 3 (mod 3)
    6 - 3 = 3
    3 ÷ 3 = 1
    Hence; 6 ≡ 3 (mod 3) is a congruence of mod 3

  5. 32 ≡ 2 (mod 5)
    32 -2 = 30
    30 ÷ 5 = 6
    Hence; 32 ≡ 2 (mod 5) is a congruence of mod 5

congruent and residue of modular.
STEP 4
Equivalent residue of a modulus
5 mins
Ask students,
  1. what do you understand by equivalent?
  2. prompt students to say what equivalent residue is.



  3. The teacher explains equivalent residues to students, thus;
    Whenever two residue x and y are found to be equivalent relative to a fixed modulus k, we write; that if

    x ≡ y(mod k) then,
    y ≡ x(mod k)
    where nk ≡ 0
    where n is an integer

Students expected to respond.
  1. The equivalent is a set of data having the same value/solution set
  2. When two residue leaves the same remainder upon division by the modulus, the such residue is said to be equivalent residue.


Example
  1. Show that 5 and 2 are equivalent in mod 3.
    Solution
    5 ≡ 1x3+2(mod 3) ----- the residue is = 2
    2 ≡ 0x3+2(mod 3) ----- the residue is =2
    Hence 5 and 2 are equivalent in mod 3.


  2. Find the positive integer of the least absolute value that is equivalent to 33 in mod 7.
    Solution
    33 ≡ 4x7+5(mod 7)
    5 ≡ 0x7+5(mod 7)
    Therefore 33 ≡ 5 (mod 7)
    Hence, the integer is 5

    If we can find two residues say m and n in mod k such that;
    m n≡ 1 (mod k)
    Then, n ≡ m-1 (RECAL: from indices) if n = m-1
    then n = 1/m
    and n x m = 1

    HENCE, n ≡ m-1
    :. n m ≡ n m-1
    We refer to n as the multiplicative the inverse of m in mod k. Therefore, if m is the multiplicative the inverse of n then n is also the multiplicative the inverse of m in the same modulus.
