Find a+b: 731≡a mod(6) and 93 ≡ b mod(7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would it be... 731 mod(6) = a (Find a) And 93 mod(7) = b (Find b) Then find a+b ?

OpenStudy (john_es):

Or use, \[c\equiv a \mod (m)\\ d\equiv b \mod (m)\\ (c+d)\equiv (a+b)\mod (m)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But one is mod 6, another one is mod 7?

OpenStudy (darkprince14):

if: (c+d) ≡ (a+b) mod m it implies that (a+b)≡(c+d) mod m but the first equation is mod 6 and the other one is mod 7...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can't you just find 731mod(6) and 93 mod(7) and then add them?

OpenStudy (john_es):

True, :), @RolyPoly is right.
