Bézout's Identity/Applications

Bézout's Identity: Applications

Bézout's Identity has significance for the Chinese remainder theorem, and is primarily used when finding solutions to linear Diophantine equations.

It is also used to find solutions via the Euclidean division algorithm, and can be applied to the extended Euclidean division algorithm.
