Number Theory, Lesson 20: Modular Inverses

Math skill: Find x Such That ax ≡ 1 (mod n)

How the beat teaches it: Every slot gives a and n — test values of x until ax mod n equals 1. That x is a's modular inverse. Build that many notes anywhere in the kit.

This is lesson 20 of 24 in RockBlocks Math, Number Theory, a free course where every lesson turns a math idea into something you can count, hear, and play. The previous lesson, Sum of Two Squares,” covered express a Prime as a Sum of Two Squares. Next is Lesson 21, A Simple RSA-Style Encryption.”

Every slot above (A, B, C, D) is its own question, and it’s a real, blank RockBlocks beat the whole time — the same drag-and-drop tiles, kit, tempo, sheet music, and drummer view as anywhere else on the site. Tap ❓ Questionin the corner to read the current slot’s problem, build your answer right in the grid, then tap ✓ Check Answerto grade it. Once you’re done, keep going: expand the beat, drop it into a Stack, or save a copy to your own page — nothing here overwrites the lesson itself, so every visitor still starts from the same blank slots.
